Requirements
=============
SirNukes Mod Support APIs mod (https://www.nexusmods.com/x4foundations/mods/503)
Kuertee's UI Extensions mod (https://www.nexusmods.com/x4foundations/mods/552)
Recommended companion mods
===========================
Here are all my quality-of-life mods. All these mods' missions are listed in the Guidance Missions tab. Use my mod, UI extensions (https://www.nexusmods.com/x4foundations/mods/552), to enable the Set Active and Set Inactive buttons in Guidance Missions. Otherwise, you won't be able to switch between them manually.
- Loot mining (https://www.nexusmods.com/x4foundations/mods/511): During a player mining session, manually targeting loot activates the targeting AI to target all others of the same loot. After the destruction of a targeted mineable asteroid, the nearest mineable asteroid with the same loot is auto-targeted.
- Ship scanner (https://www.nexusmods.com/x4foundations/mods/591): The Ship Scanner is a targeting AI that continually targets unscanned ships after the completion of a ship scan until all ships in your vicinity are scanned.
- Signal leak hunter - increasing range (https://www.nexusmods.com/x4foundations/mods/498): Scans for and targets signal leaks and/or repair panels within an ever-increasing range.
- Station scanner (https://www.nexusmods.com/x4foundations/mods/496): When using the spaceship scanner, modules that need the spacesuit scanner are targeted. When using the spacesuit scanner, the closest module with an incomplete scan is targeted. Follow this trail of targets to scan the station.
- Surface element targeting (https://www.nexusmods.com/x4foundations/mods/710): Auto-targets the next surface element after destruction of the last. Find All surface elements of the same type.
- Waypoint field for deployments (https://www.nexusmods.com/x4foundations/mods/585): Creates waypoints that you and your wingmen can follow to deployment equipment and weapons.

Signal leak hunter - increasing range is a gameplay mod for X4: Foundations that scans for and targets signal leaks and repair panels within an ever-increasing range. It requires two dependencies and is actively maintained by kuertee, with 776 endorsements and over 33k downloads.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid track record with 776 endorsements and over 33k downloads—clearly a popular pick.
- Actively maintained, last updated June 2026, so it's likely to keep working with current game versions.
- The new deactivation feature in v9.0.0.6 is a nice touch for keeping saves clean when you want to remove it.
⚠️ Cons
- Requires two other mods (SirNukes Mod Support APIs and Kuertee's UI Extensions) just to run, so setup is more involved.
- If you don't use the companion mods, you might miss out on the full QoL experience—this one works best as part of a suite.
- Since it's a targeting AI mod, it could conflict with other mods that alter targeting or scanning behavior—worth checking your load order.
For X4: Foundations players who spend time scanning stations and want to automate the hunt for signal leaks and repair panels. It's a quality-of-life boost for those who already use kuertee's other mods. Skip if you prefer manual scanning or don't want to deal with extra dependencies.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you install both required mods first—this one won't work without them.
- Use the Settings > Extensions menu to deactivate the mod when you're done; it zeroes out data for a clean save.
- Pair it with kuertee's other QoL mods (Loot mining, Ship scanner, Station scanner) and use UI Extensions to enable the Set Active/Inactive buttons in Guidance Missions.
