Corail Scanner

"This mod add a scanner able to find any kind of blocks, with a playfulness to find them."

The mod has translations for english and french, works on dedicated server and supports minecraft version 1.10.2 to 1.12+
The scan is done in a conic shape (config max : 50 squares range).
You can customize the scanner with server config options and a blacklist file(in the config folder) & some client options in game. For details, you can look at how to start. Feel free to contact me to correct any problems. *** *Hint : highlighted blocks required to be enabled in your config in-game. (this option could be server side in the future but not for now ;) )

You can use it for your personal/server use, or for modpackbut this doesn't allow you to share the files**

News

It's possible in the future that i'll introduce a second way to scan with wide ranges (requiring a casting time to be able to test the blocks during this time ;) )
The first release is out, and bring lots of improvements :

• about the scanner :
  • no more damaged, it's replaced with an energy value (corresponding to the max duration of use) & doesn't loose energy in creative
  • only scan while holding right click
  • select a block for scan is done while sneaking
  • scan is done with oredictionary (target similar "modded" blocks)
  • improve the scanned area based on the player looking direction, conic shape (Robijn Vogel)
  • improve performance for scan
• about config :
  • remove options about tick/damage, and radius of scan
  • option for max energy of battery
  • client option to highlight founded blocks (disabled by default)
  • client option to disable the sound of scanner
  • sync config (server -> client)
• about sound :
  • the config in-game lets you choose between some vanilla sounds (instrumental)
  • the pitch of the chosen sound varies, depending on the number of blocks found

Some funny screens while making the release(to have a visual of the scanned area and search results)

How to start

with the crafting table : (you can use similar ingredients from others mods for the recipes)

• craft a battery : - craft a scanner :

• the scanner only work in right hand
• you can change the target to search, by right-clicking a block while "sneaking"
• you need to hold right-click to scan the area in front of you (the angle of scan is 40 degrees)

• slowly the scanner is discharged but can recharge it with a battery in the crafting table :
