my boi has Stand.

可以把仪器改成1格吗.现在有点太大了

I avoided messing with metalhorrors for a long time but the event is just massive bullshit, so thanks for this mod

A very useful mod to help deal with the metalhorror that can wipe out your whole base and you dont have to worry about knowning when it can happen. The resource to make the device is balance so this mod doesnt feel like a cheat. Dont surgical inspect just arrest and interrogate the pawn using the highest social pawn and once the metalhorror is killed, just release the pawn back and will automatically join the colony again.

讲真，这封面图配得真好

What if this adds a special drop from metal horrors that you need a few of to make the detector?

Would be great if you added some more information. I for one am too lazy to first download a mod and then check for balance. If I did that for any mod without a description, I could do nothing else anymore... :>

Could you add its cost in the description?

I plan to just have this until the moment comes when I can have my doctors check it out then remove it do that if balance is an issue personally I plan to do such

I saw this, but wanted to experience them first hand. After having seven emerge and nearly wipe a colony, I need this.

a must have

@Lil Make Sounds like a you problem

Why tf people yapping about the balance of mods lmao, I want this no matter the balance bcs I think it is the 1 anomaly that is just boring to deal with in a sped up playthrough. Last time I played I lost my colony to 2 infections in 6 ingame hours bcs it infected both my colonists with best combat stats and only 2 with decent medical. There was no flesh or notification and when im playing sped up 6 ingame hours is a matter of seconds. Bcs there was notification I continued play for hours and bcs of a bug they never emerged untill next day when every save for the last 4 real life hours of playing was instant 5 man horror emerge wasting my 4 hours on the save.

A version which requires a captured Metal Horror would be fantastic and imo more balanced and fun.

@Kaschey

They cost 30 Bioferrite, 20 Steel, 1 Shard, and 1 Advanced Component. The Shard itself makes them kinda spendy, especially early on with Anomaly content.

They are locked behind the very early Proximity Detector Anomaly tech, with no requirement to actually have met Metalhorrors.

They do detect with perfect accuracy over a 8-square radius. So if you put one near a chokepoint to your base that everyone will have to regularily walk through, like you're main enterance, or in a main dining room, then you will basically detect a metalhorror infestation the moment a single person is infected.

You can also draft people and move them in-and-out of the detection area one by one to determine who is infected.

Basically makes the Metalhorror event a non-issue if you have a shard or two to spare.

Is it locked behind any tech? Also, what materials does it cost and is there any skill requirements for the construction? Don't want it to be too OP.

Thanks for the (yous) lol

在饭堂放一个检测器，所有金属怪都无所遁形

eugene... more like... poogene

Unlike Eugene, if you install this you're a smart, handsome and/or beautiful person who cares for your pawns and base.

Also no beauty penalty make this really OP

Eugene jars his ma's farts.

eugene is an embarrassing incel

@Eugene I see you haven't changed in the past decade. Since one of the two comments on your profile, from 2012, is about you being a dickhead.

Don't you think it's finally time to better yourself?

Nice idea :) Cant wait for other Anomaly mods :D

@eugene you know there's detectors for the other stuff in base game right?

Only a stinky redditor would buy a horror themed expansion then mod all the horror out of it
If you install this you should be ashamed of yourself

As below said, please allow this as a config option, I would rather it as it is

So, if your only pawn with decent construction skills is infected, we're still screwed?

What will be added later: The scanner built by the infected person will be an invalid version, and the infected person will try to avoid the scanner range in a non draft state

@Fadeking: Seeing how "unusually clever" raiders are programmed to avoid turret firing arcs, the base game should already have a function like this available. I'm no modder myself, but maybe this can be utilized to make infected pawns avoid scanned areas.

what about you guys do a "on ceiling" variation and "on wall" too, like wall lights, or fans in the ceiling!

@Estevo same thing as the other proximity detector...

Can you please include in the mod description what tech do you need to craft this?

this is so hot 11/10

I didn't know that i need it. but i need it 10/10

The most based mod for Anomaly

Looks so cool

@TheCarrierPrimoris
That would be interesting!
Maybe they could get assigned to a Hidden zone, that automatically excludes the Scanners area from the allowed space? I don't know enough about modding to know if this or something similar would work.
Can you even make a Hidden zone?

我爱你

@Naraxa
I can absolutely respect that.
I don't, however. So I'll be using either this mod or another.
Ain't no way those sneaky buggers will pull a fast one on me.

O_O
^__^

So what are the requirements for this building? Like the concept just also wanna preserve the feel of the metalhorrors

好！
