Description
This mod scans for dropped loot around your currently piloted ship in 2-10km range defined by your ship size, and of course loot them. It's perfect during/after dogfights to gather stuff.

Big containers are not picked up by this mod, only ammo and small inventory items - used for crafting. Check your personal inventory to see what you have, also watch out for illegal wares!

Enter scanner mode 'shift-2' to temporary disable the pickup function.

If you are worried about illegal wares, install also my other SecretStash mod.

NOTE: in case you travel as passenger, you will need to hail the pilot, select '(5) More', then select '(2) Hand me your inventory' to fetch items to your main inventory.

Version 7.x compatible.

Change log:
1.11 - added cargo items to filter, also extended pickup range by 500 meters to better work with Lockboxes.
1.10 - added money pickup for containers without other wares.Thanks @rdouglass1 for save file!
1.09 - fixed ammo pickup. Thanks @rdouglass1, @LittleDog for reporting/helping.
1.07 - some changes to loot filtering
1.05 - size of your ship defines the pickup range. 2/4/6/8/10km for xs/s/m/l/xl sizes.
1.03 - small changes in locating items. Script will execute every 10 seconds now.
1.01 - added mode check, so the mod is only active only in normal mode. To get rid of unwanted items, move away 10km, change cockpit mode to 'scan' SHIFT+2,drop the unwanted items, then leave the area before switching mode back on.

Only the ship you are currently located on, either as pilot or passenger.

I didn't like the tractor beam sound effects back in the day...

Use the capital ship loot magnet for automated clean up.

do AI pilots also use this? Or do I need 'Capital ship loot magnet' for automated clean up?

This appears to be working as of the 9.00 beta.

always, and no impact.

Is this always active or only when you turn on your magnet?
Does it have an impact on the FPS?
