The mineral detector can sniff out raw materials, potentially saving you hundreds of hours of searching.

― PDA.

The Mineral Detector is a craftable tool that helps the player to find Raw Materials, Fragments, and certain geographic locations.

Usage

When held, the Mineral Detector displays the current target material and a sine graph showing the player's proximity to the target. The Detector makes a repeating beep that beomes more frequent as the player gets closer to the selected material.

Target materials can be selected only from among those material types that the player is in close enough proximity to. The player cycles through these on the Detector's display with RMB for the next material or F for the previous one.

The available targets are:

• Argentite Outcrop
• Calaverite Outcrop
• Copper Ore
• Crystalline Sulfur
• Diamond
• Fragments (for incomplete blueprints)
• Galena Outcrop
• Gel Sack
• Gold
• Ion Cube
• Kyanite
• Lead
• Limestone Outcrop
• Lithium
• Magnetite
• Metal Salvage
• Nickel Ore
• Quartz
• Ruby
• Salt Deposit
• Silver Ore
• Spy Pengling Research Sites
• Table Coral
• Titanium
• Uraninite Crystal

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 the floating tech site in the Shallow Twisty Bridges. It is crafted in the Fabricator. (no target detected)
