How to Modify Your Helmet

Interact with Spacesuit Workbench

Spacesuit Workbench
You can install Helmet mods on your Helmet by interacting with a Spacesuit Workbench that you can find in key locations, usually on safe places like in The Lodge.

Making a mod requires materials, so it is best to keep an eye on objects and loot them as they can end up being useful to craft your mods.
