📋 About This Mod
Tired of looking for the resource you need with the Mineral Detector? This mod displays how far it is, including the depth (above or below). Please check the screenshot for details.
Recommended for my other mod Extended Mineral Detector.
Check the screenshots for visual demo. The mod will modify the tooltip text (only shows sometimes i.e. "Chance of Gold") to show the distances like this: 100m (-30m) meaning the detected resource is 100m away and you need to go 30m deeper.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 1,007 endorsements.
- High download count (31,798 downloads) shows widespread use.
- Provides precise distance and depth info, improving on the default detector.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated May 2021 — potential compatibility issues with current game versions.
- No stated compatibility with game updates or expansions released after 2021.
For resource-focused players who want precise distance and depth readouts when hunting minerals. For efficiency-minded miners who don't want to guess how far away a deposit is. Skip if you're fine with the default detector's directional ping and don't care about exact distances.
💡 Beginner Tips
- After installing, use the mineral detector on a known deposit to confirm the distance and depth numbers show up correctly.
- If the readout doesn't appear, check that you placed the mod files in the correct directory — the mod likely doesn't require a mod manager but needs manual file placement.
