[]Seatruck Scanner Module adds four new items into the game:
[
]mobile scanner room fragment: spawning on the ground in the Purple Vents biome.[]mobile scanner room module: Scanning resources within 150 meters.
[]HUD chip: Showing the scanned resources on HUD with red circle.
[]HUD chip with distance upgrade: prints the distance of the resource in the circle.
The Scanner Module is fragment based and you can find it on the Purple Vents biome.
Three fragments must be scanned for the recipe. If you scanned the first fragment the item will appear in the encyclopedia.
The module has its own power source for the scanner. Normal, ion and modded batteries can also be used.
(In Creative mode, everything works without a power source).
When the Seatruck is docked with the scanner module and the dock has sufficient power, the scanner's main batteries are charged.
If the base to which the transit dock is connected has more than 100 units of energy, the supercharger mode is automatically activated in the scanner module battery charger.
