@DJG Apparently the scanner is trying to find the appropriate surface colour and cant. Try the new version, it shouldnt have this. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3272156373

It keeps showing this error whenever its being used:
[Lidar Scanner] lua/autorun/lidarscanner.lua:240: attempt to index local 'color' (a nil value)
1. func - lua/autorun/lidarscanner.lua:240
2. unknown - lua/includes/extensions/net.lua:34

This could be useful for Navigating maps that are too dark to traverse (even with the help of a torch)

@TheUltimateDemon
1. Take a look at Lidar Scanner 2
2. Lets not forget the multiplayer features: the number of players can be several times more than 2-3 people. During one scan, the game slows down slightly, but we want to make several players, right? This means that the computer will have to process more information(at least when players scan at the same time, especially the BURST scan). The addon already does everything it can to make the game as fast as possible. I even took the fast inverse square root function from Quake.
3. It will definitely be difficult. Because sounds can be created through entities. Or they can be created simply in 3D points. These are different bindings in the game and no one knows what addon 1 can do with addon 2 since they can overlap each other.

a Few ideas of my own:

why not add settings for Full Scan Effect Versions, Currently, Full scan scans both the top down and the bottom up, Why not top to bottom, Bottom to Top, or other crazy full scan effect settings.

if you can't see other people's dots, Then why not just Split the Dot Limit per player when in Multiplayer(Potential Work around idea)

What if you add a setting to mute all game audio except for the Scanner

Things I Noticed:

Are My Weapons Supposed to be invisible, because I Can't see them?

When I Hold Down C, I can't point the Lidar Scanner in the direction of my mouse.

@ Butter Fliege

You Can Make It A horror game. The original Lidar.exe Indie game had more then just being jump scared by the mystery figure, It had a feeling "Where am I, where am I going, what am I doing, what is this place?", Maps you know and recognize feel different with this because it makes you see them differently, giving off eerie vibes. To Really make it a horror game, Have a friend run around the map and let them do whatever they want to scare, creep out, or shock you.

@ ethomastay

Probably a Stalker NPC since it looks Slumped Down

What is the red figure in the last image you took? horror monster?

i get that but can you like make an option for that or something
if you can not then i understand, thank you!

New version: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3272156373

@The bread king You cannot see other peoples dots, this is for security purposes. You do not want someone to make your computer explode from so many dots.

yo i was playing with my friend and i was so excited to scan the map together but i can't see his lidar dots, can you please help me

doesn't work correctly

Could you give me the commands and coding please

@2endos There should be a Mirror checkbox in the add-on menu(lidarscanner_menu), in any case, you have an add-on that overrides the modification of the cursor position on the game screen.

@Butter Fliege No.

Is this a scary Lidar mod?

Question, is there a beeping that plays with this addon on?

What does glitches do?

oh, you need to write lidarscanner_enabled 1 to do yourself blind, ok it works so good

it wont shows dots when i scan
or idk

i scary
for the scanner

For some reason when I enable it in the menu when I use the Lidar scan the X Axis on my mouse reverses. So Left is Right and Right is Left. Pls help me.

@Galytextheai "lidarscanner_othermethod" - Enables an alternative drawing method that is similar to Scanner Sombre. "lidarscanner_dreamcatcher" - Enables a yellow colour of the screen, which looks "nicer".

2 quick things, one what does "lidar_othermethod" do?. Also, what is "dream catcher (yellow)"

@SuviaLisa Both buttons do not work? Errors in the console? What is your version of the game?

uh the gun does NOT work for me bc it does NOT make dots

@Guy was taken I dont think there is a demon anywhere at all. But its definitely not here.

theres a lidar gamemode that based on lidar.exe that has the same demon, thats what im referring to

@Guy was taken I dont understand you

lidar gamemode if the demon didnt exsist

@bama4tn You can use any addon in the workshop for this.

Weird Question, but Is there Vr support?

@AverageCoffeeAddict Ok, i will think about it.

Adon I meant like do that you can have a real npc that hunts and chases

@g3936488 Про что Вы говорите? Разве я добавлял текстуры?

КАК СКАЧЯТЬ ТЕКСТУРЫ

КАК СКАЧЯТЬ ТЕКСТУРЫ

@AverageCoffeeAddict For what? I made this addon for sandbox gamemode and tried to make it universal.

так как я обосрался, я заявляю, что мод очинь страшьный

try to make it where you can't sprint and more towards the gamemode if you can

try to make it where you can't sprint and more towards the gamemode if you can

@NextKuromeThe76Soldier This is because the points in the water can' t get the color, i' ll fix that soon.

@fleaman I think this is related to the main part of the game, try verifying the game files, if that doesn' t help then disable all addons(including this one) and check if the entities are spawning.

Other entities? Well i can spawn the gun!

gotten this error on gm_big_riggs
