View the Installation guide on the wiki:

https://github.com/orax-Astroneer-mods/documentation/wiki

Configuration

There is no configuration file, edit the main.lua file directly.

What does the mod do?

- Press SHIFT+T to turn on/off the character torch (head light).

- Press SHIFT+R to flip the rover when it is flipped. No need to wait for the tooltip to be displayed.

- Press CONTROL+SHIFT+R to restore the terrain in a spherical area. Your terrain changes will be reverted. Use Terrain Tool instead.

- Press PAUSE to pause/resume the game.

- Press H and J to open/hide Astropedia planets and resources tabs.

- Press W or Z to auto walk.

- Your head flashlight will illuminate a larger area (search newPawn. SpotLight in the Lua file).

- Turn off the "head look". By default, your character looks in the direction of the mouse (newPawn.bEnableHeadlook).

- Mouse zoom. Zoom in/out with less mouse wheel scrolling. Default: To zoom fully, you have to scroll the wheel about approximately 16 times. Modded: it's just 5 times.

- Activates a light under the Terrain Tool. It is normally only activated in Creative mode.

- Sets a pitch limit for the driving camera (PitchControlModifier).

Troubleshooting

Known issues

- The game can crash at launch. This is probably an issue with UE4SS, I can't fix it.

You can see the logs in UE4SS.log or in the UE4SS GUI Console.

You can enable the UE4SS GUI Console in UE4SS-settings.ini in the section.
