This mod requires the following mods to function
BepInEx-BepInExPack
BepInEx pack for Mono Unity games. Preconfigured and ready to use.
Preferred version: 5.4.2305README
MobScanner
Adds Android vision, a shop upgrade that lets you scan the area around you for monsters.
How it works
Buy Android vision from the shop and press E on it. Once you own it, hold Z for three seconds. When the scan completes you get:
- The name of every monster in range
- Its tier, colour coded: T1 green, T2 orange, T3 red
- A pulsing marker on your map that follows the monster in real time
- A rotating 3D model of what was found
While the scan charges your eyes glow orange and red. Other players can see this, so scanning is not free. When it finishes your eyes turn pink if something was found, green if the area is clear.
You get two successful scans per level. A scan that finds nothing costs nothing. There is a short cooldown after each successful scan.
The upgrade turns up at random, like any other. Set AlwaysInShop to true if you
would rather it appeared every time.
Multiplayer
Everyone in the lobby needs the mod installed.
This version is the first attempt at proper multiplayer support and has not been
tested across two machines yet. Previously only the host could use the upgrade;
players who joined saw an ordinary Grab Strength upgrade in its place. The host now
tells everyone else which item is the scanner. If it misbehaves, please report it -
turning on DebugLogging and sending the lines beginning NET: from both the host
and the joining player is the most useful thing you can send.
Scan results are yours alone. The glowing eyes are visible to everyone.
