🎯 Tips & Tricks
Place the DLL file in your BepInEx/plugins folder—if you don't have BepInEx installed, you'll need to install it first.
Test the mod in a single-player world before joining a server to ensure it works with your game version.
If doors don't auto-close, check that you're not standing too close—the mod may have a built-in delay.
