Description
Ever struggle to find where all those juicy apples are? Well no longer!
With our improvements to the Ore Detector, you can now detect plants as well.

Plant detection ranges are 5x the ore detector ranges, so 250m for small grid and 750m for large grid.

This has not been tested in multiplayer, so results may vary.
You can't currently disable the plant detection other than turning off or damaging the ore detector, and it doesn't honour the [broadcast using antennas] option either.

unfortunately this not working in multiplayer for me. It flickers to life a little when the person i'm playing with is close in proximity, however it only shows up for the person I'm playing with but not me as the host. Hope this helps with bug finding.

Is this just for pickable food stuffs, or will this point me towards deer as well?

It seems to work okay in multiplayer from some limited testing I just did.
However I did seem to come across a bug whereby foragable items only show up when the host is present (spectator camera seems to work for this too) in local-host multiplayer. Server multiplayer seems fine?

@Wyn how so? Is that just because I use the range of the ore detector as a base, and so longer range modded ore detectors increase the range of the plant finder?

I still haven't got around to testing it in multiplayer yet, but your experiences suggest that it doesn't work properly.

is this mod multiplayer friendly? friend of mine was trying to find food with his detector and could only see food pop up when i was in the area with mine, even when i left area the food would go away

It should be noted that this mod does not play well with other mods that extend the range of ore detectors.

Yes! Thank you! Going nuts wondering if I have a mod ruining my foraging. This will finally give me an answer.
