Better ground-penetrating scanner

Description


This mod allows to tune the ground-penetrating scanner to scan for a specific resource. It is still possible to scan for random resources. To balance it out, when a specific resource is selected, scanning time is multiplied by 1.5. You can use the settings to set it from 1 (no augmentation) to 5.



When no pawn are using the scanner, it will continue to scan at a lowered efficiency (75% by default). This allows to free up pawns when playing small colonies. This behavior can also be tweaked or completely disabled. Efficiency can be set from 10% to 500%.

Should be compatible with everything. Safe to add in a save.

Anyone having an error where the random find interval stuck at 6 days and the guaranteed find keeps going over 100%?

@valdrax, the ground pen. scanner usually cannot be built or used whilst underneath a roof (for some reason), this makes it possible

What is the option "Allow to build ground-penetrating scanner under a roof" supposed to do?

Other posters below suggest that it's not meant to allow you to build a scanner in a mountain base, but I'm pretty sure it used to allow that (and then sometimes if you toggled the option on and off). What is the intended functionality?

The Legend. Hope all is good with you Sarg, thank you for your continued contribution to this sometimes rather, ungrateful community. :steamhappy:

@Yukimaru you're thinking of Roofed Scanning, that's not what this mod does.
