Twinkie's Long Range Ore Detectors

Beskrivning
After returning to Space Engineers after a couple of years I was incredibly sad to find that the ore detectors were nerfed from 5km to 150m. That's only 3% of what it used to be.

So if you're not worried about performance and you just want to be able to find your ores again then this mod is for you!.

Note: If you use a high detection range and you're near anything larger than an asteroid the scan can take a LONG time or maybe never complete.

Oh, huh! Another modder said that it'd been hard coded but they must've been wrong about that. Thanks for letting me know! :)

Hey DrTinyFace. I just checked on this. It's still working and moddable. The reason the range is so short in the game is that when you increase the range it significantly increases the detection time and takes up a lot of your CPU resources. This mod allows you to increase it to a very large range that will cause even modern CPUs to chug a little. If you're going to use maximum settings I recommend only having one ore detector active and you may have to give it a long time to detect things. Really the only time I use 5km is when I'm asteroid hopping to search for resources. That way there's nothing in range except the asteroid so the scan is reasonably quick and it's usually in range after a jump. If you are anywhere near a planet I would shorten it to < 1 km

Hey, just letting you know that your mod (along with every other ore detector mod ever made) no longer works, Keen patched the game so that the detection distance is hard coded into all vanilla and modded ore detectors now :(

omg bro, i literally increased a couple of numbers in a file. It's not controversial. You have chosen a good name though. I'm drinking a whiskey in your honor!

Alternativly you can use Azimuths ore detectors, they wont kill your PC and they scan at an acceptable level. just dont use the (space only) detectors on planets.

Yes thank you, I realized this almost as soon as I pressed the return button to post the message (having a thick day) but thank you so much for replying :)

@Bolisaris
I feel like this probably changes the range of the vanilla one, not add a new block.
It could have been active this whole time without you noticing.

I have just re-added this mod to increase range of detector, but it does not seem to appear in the game. I have tried removing any other ore detector mod and have placed this at the top but only the vanilla ore detector appears. Does this require a new game restart for the detector to appear.

Weirdly this only works the first time you enter a ship and then never displays ore again until the game is restarted
