Find Harvestable Resources Using Light Beams

Enable Resource Beacons

The mod marks harvestable items across your world with tall colored light beams. These beacons appear automatically when you're near gatherable resources, cutting down exploration time significantly.

Understanding Beacon Colors

Different resource types display different colored beams. Learn which colors correspond to the materials you're actively farming—this helps you focus on specific gathering tasks without stopping to examine every beam.

Adjusting Beacon Settings

Press M to open the mod menu and locate the beacon or gathering module. From here, you can toggle beacons on and off, adjust their visibility range, and customize which resource types display markers. If beacons feel too distracting, reduce their frequency or limit them to specific item categories.

Efficient Farming Routes

Use the beams to plan your gathering route before you start. Scan the landscape, identify clusters of beams, and move between them systematically. This transforms random searching into organized, efficient resource collection.
