⚠️ Common Mistakes

Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility

👍 Pros

Huge community trust (3,817 endorsements) and massive download count (138k+).
Solves a real annoyance—no more hopping out of your Seamoth just to scan a fragment.
Actively maintained (last updated August 2025), so it's likely compatible with current game versions.

👎 Cons

Requires BepInEx and Nautilus—if you're not already set up, that's extra modding overhead.
Only affects scanning in vehicles; if you rarely use vehicles, this mod won't change much for you.
No detailed feature list or install guide in the description, so you'll need to rely on standard BepInEx mod practices.
