Is it powered? It requires 800W of power.

The long range scanner can take some time to find something. Sometimes a few days, sometimes several weeks.

You need the ground-penetrating scanner. Select it and ores will highlight as green.

It could very well be due to mods.

If powered and turned on, you should be able to see the underground deposits at your current location. Make sure you've got it selected, just to be sure, though. For the Remote Scanner, do the same and then go to the map.

Do you have any mods that add Resources? Change the Mineral Scanner?

I only have deep ore identifier and planetary drill and glittertech. Other mods don't add resources or modify drills. But i turn off ore identifier and planetary drill but it don't help

Ok.
So you installed a mod that *completely rewrites* the deep one functionality.

Then, you switched it off.

And you are actually amazed that this broke your deep-ore functionality?

That's like ripping up your bus ticket, changing to Uber... And then deleting your Uber app.
Now you are on the side of the road complaining that the train won't stop for you.

Its usually a bad idea to remove mods from a game in progress, but sometimes it can work out Ok. Have you used a ground-penetrating scanner before? Familiar with how it works? I assume you have or you probably wouldn't have installed the deep ore identifier mod, but assumptions only cause problems.

When you have a problem with a game, the first thing you want to do is narrow down the cause of it. In your case, an obvious suspect would be mods you installed that affected ore drilling. The next step would be to read the discussion pages for those mods to see if anyone else had similar problems or maybe the mod received an update that broke everything. Maybe you've installed mods that are known to be incompatible.

If you can't find a solution that way, go back and look at your debug log again to see if the issue was maybe caused by interaction with a different mod that you wouldn't expect to be related to ore-drilling. If you do decide to try removing a mod, check the instructions to see if the mod author has said that's safe to do or if you need to do anything special to avoid breaking your game. If they didn't say anything about it, maybe ask them directly.

Usually, if a mod changes something about a vanilla object, you would need to remove that object before you remove the mod to avoid problems, but read before you do stuff.
