How to Craft and Use the Scanner

Crafting the Scanner

The Scanner is the core tool of the mod. You need a Blank Scanner Module and a Scanner to get started. Craft the Scanner first using a shaped recipe, then combine it with modules to define what it detects.

Scanning Blocks and Entities

Hold the Scanner and right-click to perform a scan. The Scanner sweeps the area around you and highlights whatever its installed module is set to find. Without a module installed, the Scanner has nothing to report.

To change what the Scanner looks for, open its interface and insert a Scanner Module. Each module targets one category:

• Scanner Module: Block
• Scanner Module: Chests
• Scanner Module: Common Ores
• Scanner Module: Rare Ores
• Scanner Module: Fluids
• Scanner Module: Animals
• Scanner Module: Monsters
• Scanner Module: Living Entity
• Scanner Module: Range

Scanner Module: Range extends how far the Scanner reaches, so pair it with a detection module rather than using it alone.

Charging

The Scanner runs on energy. When it stops highlighting targets, it needs to be charged before it will scan again. Once charged, right-click resumes normal scanning.
