🎯 Tips & Tricks
Make sure to enable the mod in the game's mod manager (if using one) or follow standard BepInEx installation.
Test the auto-steer in calm waters first to get a feel for how it handles before using it in storms.
Remember to toggle it off when you need to make quick manual adjustments during combat or docking.
