✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust (4,190 endorsements, 1.1M downloads) – this is a proven mod.
- Directly addresses a common pain point: knowing how sleep/wait affects your needs.
- Lightweight UI mod – no heavy scripts or gameplay overhauls, just clean info.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated January 2026 – if the game has patched since, compatibility could be an issue.
- Only shows H2O, FOD, and SLP – if you want other needs tracked, this won't cover it.
For survival players who hate guessing how long to sleep or wait without knowing the impact on thirst, hunger, and stamina. If you're a min-maxer who plans every rest, this is a must-have. Skip if you prefer immersive, less UI-driven gameplay.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Check if the mod requires a script extender or framework – if so, install that first.
- Test the mod in a save before relying on it – make sure the numbers match your actual needs.
- If you use other UI mods, load order might matter – put this one after to avoid conflicts.
