📦 Install:Easy· Under 1 minute

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure you have the Prawnsuit equipped before pressing Q—the mod only works when you're piloting it.
  • If the mod doesn't work after installing, check that you've placed the DLL in the correct BepInEx plugins folder.
  • Since the mod is from 2019, test it in a save before relying on it in a long playthrough.
