📋 About This Mod
I made this mod as a Nautilus port of Scanner Room Control Chip by J2bT which uses SMLHelper, and I saw comments on the mod page of people asking for an update so I made the update... you're welcome.
Very soon I will update this to put the craftable item in the Modification Station (it's currently in the Scanner Room Fabricator), but I don't wanna right now.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid download-to-endorsement ratio (2,740 downloads, 82 endorsements) shows players are actually using it
- Porting to Nautilus means better compatibility with modern Subnautica mod setups
- Simple concept—just adds a control chip—so it's easy to understand and integrate
⚠️ Cons
- Requires Nautilus mod loader, which adds an extra dependency for players
- Last updated July 2024—may not be compatible with future game updates
For Subnautica players who use the Nautilus mod loader and want to add a control chip item to the Scanner Room. If you're not using Nautilus, you'll need to install it first. Skip if you're looking for major gameplay overhauls—this is a small, focused addition.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have Nautilus installed and updated before adding this mod, as it's required for the chip to work.
- Check the mod's page for any additional dependencies or load order notes—since it's a port, it might need to load after Nautilus.
- If you're new to modding Subnautica, use a mod manager like Vortex to handle installation and avoid manual file placement errors.
