Rare Sightings Tracker

Description
This requires the Rare Sightings mod to be installed for this to work correctly so please make sure to install that.

Adds a new GPS item to the game that when used with the left click, will display details about the rare dino from the Rare Sightings Mod.
I just got tired of having notepad open and regularly alt-tabing to take note of the cordinates for the are dinos.

DETAILS DISPLAYED:
- Level
- Name
- Biome
- Latitude and Longitude

FEATURES:
- Uses the CoordRoundingFactor from the Rare Sightings mod to make it random location within a certain range of the true dino location. Defaults to 5, same as Rare Sightings Mod.
- dinos location can not be updated more then 1 time every 60secs. Meaning, if you display the GUI and try to redisplay it less then 60secs later, it will simply display the same location and dinos as the previous 60secs. this is limit abuse and maintain server performance. May tweak this setting later, but for now it's 60secs.

GIVING CREDIT/PROPS:
I want to give full Props to the Rare SIghtings mod as the tracker wouldn't have come to light without it. I Greatly enjoy his mod and look forward to what else he can bring to the table.

Also, for mod ID - you can just select the SHARE button. It shows the MOD ID for every Mod ever created that way. Simple.

Having seen @Yahoihoi's recommendation, I got Dino Storage V2 before I started playing in earnest with Rare Sightings. I did a test on a tame I didn't much care about, a carno of some kind. It had a short black mohawk before it went into the soul ball, and when it came out, the hair became dark red feathers on either side of its head. I'd say store these critters with the expectation that some feature will be altered.

Does anyone know what the EngramEntry and item path names are for the tracker? I'd like to tweak the engram level requirement and crafting costs for the tracker, or else at least be able to spawn it in.

@ParaDyce you can use the dino storage v2 mod for this. I can confirm. Got a horned Thyla and it kept the horns when released. Try it with a not so cool rare, just in case. Hope that helps. :)

Quick warning to anyone using the Rare sightings mod.
Do not, legit don't use a cryopod on the unique ones like scaled mammals and stuff or it will completely wipe the cosmetic, you will keep the colour but the cosmetic will be gone.
So if you get, say a Green scaled Procoptodon, (As I did) and you put it in a Cryo pod to ship it, you will just get a green Procoptodon back with normal hair, just a warning for those trying to get the coolest animals if you want to keep them the way they are you have to get them back by walking or carrying.

@dark_ronnie he really doesn't need to put the mod Id if you look at the top of the page in lime green it says at the end of the URL the mod id you just have to look

dark_ronnie :: it's not me assuming that you or anyone else is techsavvy. it's assuming that anyone with internet access knows how to use a standard search engine. Here is a link to help you in case you don't. the first result is a guide created from 2016 (4 years ago) that is 100% still valid : https://lmgtfy.app/?q=how+to+find+Ark+Mod+Id&iie=1

Temil2006: your response about mod ID does indeed make you sound like an ass... it takes you 30seconds to write down the ID, but for those of us who aren't that techsavvy it takes a lot longer to find out how you can find the ID when the creator has not been so forthcoming..... that said thank you for your work on the mod, i real enjoy it, just dont assume everyone knows everything you know please....
