The Mineral Detector is a craftable tool. It allows the player to locate sources of metal, such as outcrops.

Usage

When held, the Mineral Detector displays the current target metal and a sine graph showing the player's proximity to the target. Additionally, there is a looping beeping sound that will occur more frequently depending on how close the player is to the target metal. To change the target metal, press RMB. The metals available to be targeted are as follows:

• Copper Ore
• Diamond
• Fragments
• Gold
• Lead
• Lithium
• Magnetite
• Nickel Ore
• Silver Ore
• Titanium

Recipe

The blueprint for this tool is acquired by scanning the Mineral Detector on the Delta Island at -234 31 -728, inside a cargo box at the Emergency Supply Cache at -584 -33 22, or at a floating tech site in the Shallow Twisty Bridges. It is crafted in the Fabricator.
