About this mod Author’s original text
ImNotANoob — HUD Cleanup & Telescope
Cleans up the HUD, dims health bars, and adds a working telescope scope with 6x zoom.
Features
Telescope scope — hold Z
- 6× optical zoom (FOV 10°) with smooth transition
- Circular scope overlay (black vignette, no oval distortion)
- Player character hidden from view while zooming
- Render distance increased 4× (distant islands, ships visible)
- All NPC and resources force-loaded in the scope (no disappearing objects)
- Highest LOD forced on all objects in range
- All settings automatically restored when Z is released
Fog toggle — F6
Removes the thick atmospheric fog that hides distant islands.
Sky remains visible. Press again to restore.
Damage numbers — F7
Toggle floating combat and harvesting damage numbers.
Disabled by default. Enabling this feature causes a noticeable FPS drop (~10–15 fps)
because Unity must scan the entire scene to hide newly spawned number objects.
Press F7 to enable damage numbers if you need them.
Key prompts — F9
Hides contextual key prompts and interaction hints:
ContextualInputPrompt, InteractionHud, ToggleHelpText, PlayerInputHelp, ItemUsagePrompts
Auto HUD dimming (always on)
- Enemy health bars dimmed to 50% opacity
- Player HP bar, stamina bar, toolbar dimmed to 30–50% opacity
- Stamina bar scaled down 2×
UI dump — F8
Prints all Canvas objects and their hierarchy to the BepInEx log. For debugging only.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- Most mods rely on the game's mod loader — the usual route is a community mod manager (such as r2modman): pick this game, install, and it handles the loader and dependencies.
- For a manual install, put the mod files into the matching Mod / plugins folder inside the game directory.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; mods with listed dependencies need those installed as well.
Install locations vary a lot between mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
