🎯 Tips & Tricks
Backup saves first
Always copy your save file before using the debug menu to avoid corruption.
Use for testing only
Use the debug menu to test base layouts or combat strategies, not for normal play.
Disable after use
Close the debug menu immediately after making changes to prevent accidental toggles.
🔧 Troubleshooting
F12 does nothing
Ensure you're on PC and have a mod loader installed; the debug menu is not in the vanilla game.

Update your graphics drivers and verify game files via Steam.
