📋 About This Mod
Hover any item to see what it's made from, which crafting, cooking and chemistry recipes use it, what it distills into, and which traders swap it. Unlearned recipes stay hidden. Press Q for full lists.
Tooltip Plus
Know what an item is for before you scrap it
Tested on Abiotic Factor 1. 4. 0. 28206
Requires UE4SS for Abiotic Factor
"Do I need this?" Hover any item and Tooltip Plus tells you: what it's made from, which recipes use it, what it distills into, and which traders will swap it. No more alt-tabbing to the wiki with a full backpack.
Main features
Trades
Shows whether an item is Tradable (a trader takes it) or Acquirable (a trader gives it), with the exact give-and-get pair for each trader. Traders you haven't reached yet show as ???, so nothing is spoiled.
Cooking
Food crafting and soup recipes that use the item. Replaces the game's own "used in N soup recipes" line with the actual recipes.
Chemistry & Distilling
What the item distills into, the chemistry recipes that use it, and what it can be distilled from.
Crafting
Every crafting recipe that uses the item, tagged by category, plus a Made from line showing what it takes to craft the item itself. Wildcard ingredients like "Any Glue" are understood, so items count toward every recipe they can fill in for.
Summary or full detail
Sections start as one-line summaries, e.g. "Used in 6 crafting recipes (4 known)". Press Q while a tooltip is open to switch to the full recipe lists and back. Long lists split into two columns.
No spoilers
Recipes you haven't learned yet are counted, but what they make is shown as ??? until you unlock them.
