Make sure you have the Seaglide unlocked in-game — the sonar display is based on that tech.
If the mod doesn't work after installing, check that your game version matches the mod's update date (2019).
This is a client-side mod, so no server or save file changes needed — just drop it in and play.

⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility
👍 Pros
- Huge community trust (3,702 endorsements) — this is a must-have for Cyclops pilots.
- Simple, focused feature that solves a real navigation pain point.
- Lightweight and doesn't overhaul anything else — just adds the sonar display.
👎 Cons
- Last updated in 2019 — may not work with the latest Subnautica patches.
- No install instructions or compatibility notes provided by the author.
- Only adds the sonar display — if you wanted more Cyclops upgrades, this isn't it.
