This mod adds a recipe to the scanner room fabricator to create a microchip you can equip like the scanner room HUD chip that acts like a portable scanner room centered on the player's position.

Once the chip is equipped, right-clicking on it in your equipment or pressing a keyboard shortcut (default Left Shift + L) will open a menu to select a specific resource.

Selecting a resource from the menu will save that resource as the sought resource and begin to show nearby instances on the HUD.

Configurable Variables:

• You can limit resource finding to objects that have been scanned with the hand-held scanner.
• You can change the scan range and scan interval (default 500m, 10s).
• You can change the various texts used by the mod.
• You can change the ingredients required for the recipe (default ComputerChip:1,Magnetite:1)
• You can change which fabricator to use to craft the chip.
• You can change the keyboard shortcut.
