SHift K Advanced Ore Detector

Extend the maximum detection radius of supported ore detectors to 500 metres.

Use the game’s native ore-detection system with a larger adjustable range, without adding new blocks or requiring an additional UI framework.

Features

  • 500 m maximum detection radius for all four supported detector variants.
  • Supports large-grid and small-grid detectors.
  • Includes standard and Type II variants.
  • Uses the existing terminal range slider.
  • Preserves construction components, power requirements, PCU, models, and DLC ownership requirements.
  • No scripts or additional dependencies required.

Supported Ore Detectors

  • Standard large-grid ore detector.
  • Standard small-grid ore detector.
  • Type II large-grid ore detector.
  • Type II small-grid ore detector.

Each supported detector receives the same 500 m maximum radius.

How to Use

  • Enable the mod and load your world.
  • Select a supported ore detector in the standard block terminal.
  • Adjust its native range slider up to 500 m.

Existing range selections are preserved. Installing the mod raises the available maximum; it does not automatically set every detector to 500 m.

Installation

Subscribe to this item and enable SHift K Advanced Ore Detector in your world’s mod list, then load the world.

SHift K UI is not required. No chat commands or separate configuration window are needed.

Current Notes

  • Handheld drills are not modified.
  • Custom ore-detector subtypes added by other mods are not included.
  • Ore detection uses the game’s native scanning and display behaviour.
  • Another mod overriding the same detector definitions may affect the resulting maximum range.
