S.O.S. is a high-performance recipe browser and object tracking utility for Barotrauma. Designed to be the ultimate companion for both vanilla and heavily modded campaigns, it provides a seamless, integrated interface to explore the complex system of Europa.
- Comprehensive Browser: View Fabrication, Deconstruction, and "Used In" recipes for any object in the game.
- Affliction Browser: Browse detailed information of ALL afflictions (Status Effects), including modded ones. View their effects, treatments, contraindications, and more — just like items.
- Clinical Simulator: Open the SIMULATOR tab to test afflictions and treatments on a dummy patient. Add or remove afflictions, adjust their strength, and apply items to preview real-time effects — without consuming resources or risking your crew.
- UPDATED: HUD Tracker: Track fabrication recipes in real-time with an on-screen checklist. Supports per-recipe tracking — items with multiple recipes show a submenu to pick which to track. Use Ctrl+[SOSKey] or the Show/Hide button to toggle visibility.
- Dynamic Meta-Info: View base prices, object tags, stack sizes, and detailed descriptions in a structured Wiki-style panel.
- Detailed Recipe Analytics: Refined "Obtain" and "Usage" sections with context-aware filtering and smart ingredient wrapping.
- Smart List Filters: Click on the separator bars (Items, Afflictions, etc.) in the results list to instantly filter by that object type.
- Responsive UI: High-precision resizable interface that ensures the UI is always displayed in any position, scale or aspect ratio you want, as a real window.
- Favorites & History: Web-browser style navigation (Back/Forward) and a pinning system for quick access to frequent items.
- Multi-language Support: Native support for English, Spanish, Russian, French, and Chinese. (Last 3 are translated by AI, if anyone wants to correct them, are free to make a pull request and help us.)
- NEW: Configurable Settings: SOS open key, tracker visibility, XML font scale, and window position are configurable directly from the LuaCs in-game settings menu for convenience or if you encounter any issues.

S.O.S. is currently in its Beta stage. While the core functionality is stable and high-performing, we are working towards deep integration with the game's mechanics and immersion.
Stay tuned for these updates as we move toward the 1.0 Full Release.
Q: Can it be used on vanilla servers?
- A: Absolutely, this is a client-side mod, so it only matters for you — it doesn't affect any other player or server you play on.
Q: Is it compatible with all mods?
- A: At the moment, yes. It should be compatible with ALL content mods. If you encounter any error or bug with other mods, please report them on GitHub or the Steam page.
Q: Is it really compatible with ALL in-game items?
- A: Yes! Everything, including submarine parts and items from mods. I've decided not to exclude these items for now, as they contain descriptions and other useful metadata. If they bother you, you can create an issue on the GitHub project, leave a comment on the Steam page, or contact me directly, and I'll prioritize it.
