🎯 Tips & Tricks
Place the mod files in the Subnautica BepInEx/plugins folder if you're using BepInEx, or use a mod manager like Vortex for automatic installation.
Check that your game version is compatible with mods from 2020 — you may need to use the Legacy build or a compatibility patch.
Test the batteries in a creative save first to see how they interact with your existing power grid.
