This simple mod increases the wordstone range, so the icon picked up by the scanner shows from farther away. Plus I increased the time the icon is displayed to 30 seconds. This mod makes it closer to how the original release of No Man's Sky was.
I also added a few other things:
I fixed the Sentinel loot drops so they display an icon that makes more sense (instead of Ch), as well as added icons to the word, health, and shield stations found inside buildings and other outposts. And finally, I removed the horrible FLASH you get when you activate a wordstone. I really dislike when developers use bright lights like that.
One small side note:
I believe the compiler is having difficulty with the entity file for the wordstones. I made this mod for myself for Pathfinder, and no issues. But in Atlas Rises the same changes would sometimes make the wordstones' light be permanently on? Yet the next time I played it would work as intended? So I ended up hex editing the bytes back in that the compiler was rejecting, and so far I've not had the light problem. So if you notice the light on the wordstone is on, even though you haven't activated it, let me know.
