🎯 Tips & Tricks
Since the mod comes in three flavors, try each one in a test save to see which power increase feels balanced for your settlement.
If you're using a mod manager, install the plugin and check your load order — it should be placed after any other generator mods.
If you're on a newer game version, test the mod early to ensure it doesn't cause issues with your current setup.
