Makes artifact spots and seed spots easier to see.
The mod can either draw a red border around the spot or draw a notification bubble. This can be changed through the Generic Mod Config Menu (or by editing the "config.json" file).
The source code for this mod is available on GitHub.
Legality
This mod is not considered cheating because in the vanilla game, you can pause the game upon reaching a new location and take a screenshot. Then, you can study the screenshot and look through it for artifact spots while the game is paused and no in-game time is passing. Doing this is necessary for optimal play but is incredibly tedious. Thus, this is just a quality-of-life mod to make the process easier.
Comparison to Other Mods
There are other mods that change the sprites of artifact spots to make them easier to see. However, doing this replaces the spritesheet as a content modification. Since this mod draws on top of the existing sprite, no content modifications are necessary, making this mod more resilient to base game updates.
