Description

Rather than opening/alt-tabbing to steam/google looking for guides, Wiring Assistant is an in game overlay for Barotrauma players who want wiring and signal logic guidance available in-game. It DOES NOT place wires automatically or rewrite submarine files. It gives players a practical reference while they wire: recipes, component lists, pin names, quick labels, and logic component notes for circuits built from relays, gates, math components, Wi-Fi, memory, terminals, detectors, pumps, doors, reactors, and more.

Repair gameplay has moved out of Wiring Assistant. Use Rhythm of the Dive if you want the standalone pressure-repair minigame.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does this mod automatically wire devices? A: No. It is an assistant overlay and reference tool. Players still place and connect wires normally. Q: Do labels rename the actual submarine item? A: No. Labels are local helper notes saved by the mod. They do not permanently rename vanilla items in the submarine file. Q: Can I use this in multiplayer? A: It is a client-sided mod. Q: Does everyone need LuaCsForBarotrauma? A: Yes. Enable LuaCsForBarotrauma before Wiring Assistant.
