Version 1.21

This client-side mod aims to rewrite every affliction and item description in Neurotrauma to be more informational in terms of causes, uses, and effects. Symptoms will now tell the player their most common causes. Items will now tell the player what they are used for and what drawbacks they have.

This mod is intended to assist new players in learning Neurotrauma, while experienced players may still enjoy it as a description enhancement mod. It will work entirely client-side without servers having to install it, but it requires client-side Lua. Installation instructions for client-side lua can be found on the Lua for Barotrauma mod page. This mod's load order does not matter. While this mod may help with learning Neurotrauma, it cannot entirely replace the Neurotrauma guide due to things such as hidden afflictions and mechanics.

If this mod is installed on a server, it will, by default, enforce clients into downloading and enabling the mod. This behavior may be changed in the mod config (found in the esc menu, where the Neurotrauma config is), "Share mod with clients". If this option is toggled off, clients will not be prompted to download or enable the mod. If the mod is enforced on a server, clients may still choose to ignore the mod with the config option "Informative Descriptions Enabled". When this option is toggled off, the mod will not change any descriptions.

Currently supported mods: NT Cybernetics Cybernetics Improved Immersive Repairs - NT Cybernetics Compatibility Patch NT Cybernetics Enhanced More mods may be supported over time.
