Metal Detector
This mod features new tools that will help you find items that you might be looking for.
The standard issue metal detector will start beeping when you are getting close to minerals, chests among other things, while the advanced detector can be set to find specific materials.
There is even rumored that there is a detector that will tell you how far away from the item(s) you are.
