What is it about?

With this mod, you will be able to obtain various ore detectors, allowing you to know if you have ores underneath.

Depending on the type of detector you have, it can find different types of ores.

If the detector doesn't find anything, it will make this sound:

<audio controls src="https://github.com/restonic4/OreDetector/raw/master/common/src/main/resources/assets/oredetector/sounds/not_found.ogg" type="audio/ogg" type="audio/ogg"></audio>

If the detector does find something, it will make this sound:

Recipe

This is the general crafting recipe; all detectors are crafted this way, but you will need to change the material.
