🎯 Tips & Tricks
If you're playing on a server, make sure the mod is installed on the server side as well, or it won't take effect.
Place lightning rods strategically to ensure they cover your entire base area, as the mod only redirects strikes to rods that exist.
Check the mod's compatibility with your game version before installing, since it hasn't been updated since 2019.
