Adds the Block Detector Item which can be used to locate various Nearby Ore Blocks in your world.

 

  • How's it work?

Simply hold the desired Item or Block in your OFF HAND slot and use the Block Detector in your Main Hand.

 

If any Ore is in range, it'll set a "Block Beacon" at the Ores Location.  These Beacons will remain in place for 60 seconds before vanishing.

 

  • Successfully locating a block will apply the "Static" effect to you as well, preventing you from using the Detector again until the effect fades.

 

  • You can repair/recharge the Block Detector using Redstone Batteries on an Anvil.

 

  • Picking Up a Redstone Block will teach you the Redstone Battery Recipe.

 

  • Crafting a Battery will teach you the Block Detector Recipe.

 

  • You're Block Detector WILL NOT break when it reaches 0 durability, but it will not be usable until it's repaired!

 

Off Hand Items that will work with the detector...

  • Blocks

ANCIENT DEBRIS, DIAMOND ORE, GOLD ORE, EMERALD ORE, IRON ORE, REDSTONE ORE,LAPIS ORE, NETHER GOLD ORE, NETHER QUARTZ ORE, COAL ORE

  • Items
ANCIENT DEBRIS, NETHERITE INGOT, DIAMOND, GOLD INGOT, EMERALD, IRON INGOT, REDSTONE, LAPIS LAZULI, QUARTZ, COAL

NOTE: The Detector has a range of 200 blocks and each use will scan all blocks in range.  Due to this, I strongly suggest NOT using this mod on a Multiplayer Server.  It could create lag!  Be warned!

 

Added in 1.0.1 - Infinite Block Detector (Secret Item)

HINT:  Its a secret!
