Key Features

Overlay Filters

Paint the world with a clean, X-ray-style overlay that highlights ores, spawners, and mobs.
• Per-type colors: assign distinct hues so diamonds ≠ spawners ≠ mobs at a glance.
• Distance caps: set how far each layer is visible to keep things readable and performant.
• On-the-fly clarity: dial the palette to your liking—from subtle tints to bold neon.
• Plays nice with content mods: detects registered blocks/entities, so most new ores and custom mobs show up without extra work.

Energy System

Every scan costs charge, so information has a price—and a rhythm.
• Capacity & efficiency upgrades: extend uptime or reduce per-scan drain to match your playstyle.
• Meaningful choices: save juice for long-range sweeps or run quick, frequent pings.
• Progress you can feel: as you upgrade, scans last longer and recover faster, keeping exploration snappy.

HUD & Controls

A minimal HUD shows current energy and active overlay state at a glance.
• Toggle overlays and adjust range via rebindable keybinds.
• Clean, unobtrusive readouts designed for exploration.
