🎯 Tips & Tricks
If you're using a mod manager like Vortex, just drag and drop the mod folder into your Subnautica mods directory.
Make sure to craft a power cell and insert it into the panel to see the power feature in action.
Test the color customization on a small habitat first to see how it looks before applying to your main base.
