apply - Add the programming block from above to your hot bar with the argument of apply.

down - Add the programming block from above to your hot bar with the argument of down.

up - Add the programming block from above to your hot bar with the argument of up.

Once the above is met you will need to add a few commands to your hot bar.

LCD Panel or Cockpit with the designated tag.

Currently only the first one found is used. You, as a player, still have to scan the planet or asteroid there is no 'scan the world' button. The great thing about Ore Detector Raycast and Ore Finder Plus is that this doesnt 'break' the immersion of the game.

New Error handling to detect missing required mods.

Tested with Most mods for extending range of the basic ore detector as well as different ore deposits (Like Better Stone) successfully.

New status screen and mini status screen.

This is faster than 360 scan but only sees whats in front.

Forward Plane Scan - This scan will project a ray from -5 to 5 degrees on the azimuth and -5 to 5 degrees on the elevation creating a pyramid projected from the front of the ore detector.

360 Scan - This will scan 360 degrees around the ore detector recording any ore it hits.

Forward Scan - v1.2 default mode which send a 2D ray out the front of the ore detector at the designated distance.

The script will automatically save and restore settings between sessions.

Now the ability to edit all settings in the OFP Menu (scan distance, enable/disable, etc).

Increased distances (default 1KM detection range).

List all GPS coordinates for ore deposits.

Have a heads up display of ore deposits discovered.

This in-game script creates a logging system around that raycast. Small ray into a material (planet, asteroid, etc) and will report back the ore deposits it hits. In short the mode will allow the Ore Detector to fire a Ore Finder Plus leverages the Ore Detector Raycast mod to allow a Raycast collision with the ore from the detector. Unfortunately these distances are too short to be useful and it is super easy to miss pockets of ore. The small ship block has a distance of 50m while the large ship block has a distance of 150m. Currently the Ore Detector allows a player to 'scan' for ore deposits they can mine. This is a Space Engineers in-game script for logging ore locations.
