- Huge community trust (3,817 endorsements) and massive download count (138k+).
- Solves a real annoyance—no more hopping out of your Seamoth just to scan a fragment.
- Actively maintained (last updated August 2025), so it's likely compatible with current game versions.
⚠️ Cons
- Requires BepInEx and Nautilus—if you're not already set up, that's extra modding overhead.
- Only affects scanning in vehicles; if you rarely use vehicles, this mod won't change much for you.

💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure BepInEx is installed first—drop the mod's DLL into the BepInEx/plugins folder.
