Lua + CS clientside mod.

Generation takes place in the background. If you see a message in the console every 2 seconds, it means the generation in progress. Wait or continue playing until generation is complete.

Make shure Lua For Barotrauma installed and CS enabled! Adds more information about items to their descriptions. The descriptions generate automatically and consider your mods and vanilla game files. Mod supports English and Russian language.

VERY IMPORTANT: If you use new lua install method your lua could be broken. Check it by console command "reloadlua". If you have red errors in console, your lua is broken. Try reinstall game and install lua by classic install method.

!!! ONLY IF SHIFTTOGGLE ON IN CONFIG(ESC) !!! !!! There will be no new descriptions in stores if SHIFTTOGGLE is ON !!! !!! new descriptions show when you hold LeftShift button !!! !!! new Vanilla descriptions excluding mods changes via RightShift !!!
