Increase ore detector ranges

Honestly this is one of the absolute worst parts of the game, its almost pathetic in regards to finding ores that even the large grid one is 150m, its not a big request just make the ranges better for both, the large grid should be around 1km at minimum and the small one around 300m, you got massive worlds and moons and have to virtually hug the planets to find the rarer ores, why has this not been changed sooner?

Even if there was a setting that would lower the accuracy of the detector at longer ranges so that you would get a ping and have to slow down and search closer/slower to find the deposit.

Hi,


I thought about that too. My idea would be some kind of connection/collaboration of the ore detector with an antenna and/or programmable block or turret controller that would lead to a 100% increase of the detection range. That seems to be a fair in-game solution to boost ore detection. It would make antennas or antenna dishes also more useful. (The antenna function itself would be deactivated that way.)


What do you think?
