Fly-by Looting

Description
This mod scans for dropped loot around your currently piloted ship in 2-10km range defined by your ship size, and of course loot them. It's perfect during/after dogfights to gather stuff.

Big containers are not picked up by this mod, only ammo and small inventory items - used for crafting. Check your personal inventory to see what you have, also watch out for illegal wares!

Enter scanner mode 'shift-2' to temporary disable the pickup function.

If you are worried about illegal wares, install also my other SecretStash mod.

NOTE: in case you travel as passenger, you will need to hail the pilot, select '(5) More', then select '(2) Hand me your inventory' to fetch items to your main inventory.

Version 7.x compatible.

Change log:
1.11 - added cargo items to filter, also extended pickup range by 500 meters to better work with Lockboxes.
1.10 - added money pickup for containers without other wares.Thanks @rdouglass1 for save file!
1.09 - fixed ammo pickup. Thanks @rdouglass1, @LittleDog for reporting/helping.
1.07 - some changes to loot filtering
1.05 - size of your ship defines the pickup range. 2/4/6/8/10km for xs/s/m/l/xl sizes.
1.03 - small changes in locating items. Script will execute every 10 seconds now.
1.01 - added mode check, so the mod is only active only in normal mode. To get rid of unwanted items, move away 10km, change cockpit mode to 'scan' SHIFT+2,drop the unwanted items, then leave the area before switching mode back on.

Is this updated?

Thank you

Lopez, that's because the file size changed. You may change 2500 to 9999, but not to 10000.

If you absolutely want 10000, then you need to get the unpacked version of my mods from Nexus.

Hi,thank you so such good mod.
I have a question,I try to change the range to 10000 but ttl destory this function.
Senjai 10 Jun @ 5:24am 
Yeah, but then that's opt-out instead of opt-in. Which is the opposite of my preference. It works for most people so no sweat, don't mind me :)

You can disable it by going into scanner mode.

Ah i wish it was on press instead of fully automatic
Assailer  [author] 2 Jun @ 11:17am 
no need to press any key. the on-board tractor automatically activates every 10 seconds and pick up nearby inventory items/ammo.

Do you mean you have to press o to trigger the mod, or its enabled by default? Can we make it so the script only runs when you press "O" ?
