What's new

The mod is now Ore Detector Legacy, and eight detectors join for Mekanism and Mystical Agriculture.

New detectors

Five for Mekanism: tin, lead, osmium, fluorite and uranium, with 240, 220, 220, 180 and 150 durability. Three for Mystical Agriculture: inferium, prosperity and soulium, with 220, 180 and 160.

They only appear when that mod is installed, in the creative tab and the crafting book alike. Each one is crafted from the material its ore gives and repaired with the same material in an anvil. The Mekanism detectors also count Dense Mekanism ores.

Seamless Ores

Every detector now counts the Seamless Ores variants of its ore, the andesite, diorite, granite, tuff, basalt and blackstone versions, the same way it already counted Universal Ores.

A new name

Ore Detector Legacy in the mod list, on the creative tab and on the config screen, with a new icon. The mod id is still oredetector, so worlds and config files carry straight over.

Ore Detector Reborn

The first time you join a world, a short notice says what 2.0 added and introduces Ore Detector Reborn: one detector for every ore, which will cover most modded ores as it grows. The two install side by side. The notice links to Reborn and is shown once per world.

The rest

  • On 26.3 the cooldown only held for a detector's first scan. Every scan now waits the configured time.
  • One file per loader covers 26.1 to 26.3.

The Mekanism and Mystical Agriculture detectors appear on 1.20.1, whose file also runs on NeoForge. 1.21.11 needs no Cloth Config.

This mod has no additional files
