love the mod. Only thing is yeah the draw is kinda short. Would love it if I could see these from a lot further away similar to a flare. but still useful for marking where things are for easy locating when you get close.

@ Alpha: When you are on a flyer and know Roughly where your base is but not the exact location, the markers pinpoint that. It's meant as a supplement, not a replacement, for the default map markers. @ Calmaria: Visibility probably depends on the render distance you have set in the game's graphics options

@ Alpha, strange, mine are there when I am much, much father away, but then, I am not playing on a potato.

@RocketLawnChair OG

As of now, u cant configure anything on them, they are laser markers all set with the same brightness, color of your choice ofcourse and seen by anyone, although, only the owner of the marker or tribe-member can pick them up, a rival tribe will see them but they cant pick them up.

I do have future plans for them to add a option wheel with all sorts of amazing options and configs, but for now I hope this info was enough to understand :)

Do these markers work on the whole server regardless of tribe? I mean to say, is there an option to make them visible server wide regardless of who places them? And is the view distance far away or more condensed? Are these options configurable?

So, I placed one on a cliff platform to make it easier to find from the air. The problem is the platform is visible before the laser is. Is there a way to increase the view distance?

@Anxiety

Hey thanks for the feeback.

Creating such thing with a dome would be no problem and I deffinetely keep it in mind to add later, you have my word on it, but can't confirm when that will be :)

Scrimshaws

I love this mod. It makes finding my way home much easier. However, when I'm traveling along the ground, sometimes it's still hard to see the marker through dense foliage. How hard would it be to create a dome version, like a tek shield or maybe some sort of mesh texture?

Also, I'd like to second the activate/deactivate toggle suggestion from Niscandia.

@ShadowAngel

They work right away without the need of any power source/fuel or coal.

Hi there, what dose "Enable Unpowred Auto-Activation" option on white laser means?

Using this mod, I thought of something that could help.
Could you add in the ability to turn on and off the lasers? Even better if you can allow pin code toggles as well.

Reason being, is my group uses them on rafts. And well some times someone moves the raft, helps to find it. But while driving the raft, the laser can be a little annoying. So being able to toggle it on and off would help.

I could see this being helpful on any platform dino (on PvE servers) in case it runs/flies off. But while moving the dino, it isn't in your way especially at night.

@Toxxi
You can take a look in the discussion tab, there you can find the admin and server owner list with the spawncodes, make sure to learn the engrams in-game to make them.

Scrimshaws

how do i spawn this in / get it?

@Scrimshaws,
Thank you for the answer, and when in the future?
Because of the undemanding to the resources of the rays can be the whole map to sow, and if it were otherwise, and even difficult, it would be more interesting. But this is my opinion only, anyway thanks for the work done!

@Demi Burn,

Reason being is to always be able to craft them on the go, with little to no efford, just a few very simple and cheap resources to always have access to anywhere and also to make sure all maps can use them, if for example the crystal rate is lowered it might be hard and annoying to create, and for the radical menu, this will come in the future. ;)

Useful modification. But why not make a choice of beam color in the circular menu And why not more appropriate resources for the subject are required, such as metal ingots, crystals, cement paste...

cool idea. May I suggest the option to make them visible only to you / Tribe Only / Public.

Update day!

Some people have asked and suggested a couple of things so here we go people!

New types of lasers have been added:
- Cyan
- Purple
- Orange!

Brightness for all lasers have been adjusted slightly to function better.

Engram Logo overhaul:
All Laser engrams got a fresh new look to them.

New Descriptions:
We now use color coded descriptions for the lasers!

Enjoy!

@Raynor

Thanks for the suggestion, but I intentionally kept the recipe very simple and easy to craft on the go, I think people will simply stop using these if I do have the recipe involve dye.

In the near future they will even have more colors which can be changed from 1 dial instead of different types of markers.

- Scrimshaws

Suggestion for the crafting recipe. 2 Crystal, 4 Metal & 1 Dye (color of light).

@Mysfytt

Thank you ^^

Currently I am still very busy on another project of mine.

However I am more than happy to tell you there will be more options to choose from and it
might be easier to use overall, with like a dial u could pick the colour from.

- Scrimshaws

I love these- it'd really help my tribemates with getting lost while travelling together (we have... no sense of direction and get split up easily). The only trouble is there aren't very many colors- I'd love to see orange and cyan and maybe magenta added.

This is such a cool idea. Would love if there were more sub colours like orange and teal

Still enjoying these :) though now I'm wondering if they could be made like beacons and towers and be seen beyond draw distance. Or if they could be placed underwater or made to float? Thanks again for sharing these!

@Braeden
The coming up update has that planned ;)

is there any way we can get it so that the beams look thicker

Full mod ID is 1768535612

Excacly ;)

now your talking my language, punish is my fav thing to do ;)

@Sam of Haywood
It sure would be great to have but the only toggle option they will get is the color cycle, I dont see tribe only settings happen with them, it really is about setting up rules on the server when it comes to use of the lasers and punish those who over-use or spam them around the map.

- Scrimshaws

Would it be at all possible to have a setting so the lasers are tribe specific[ haven't tested yet but i see no mention of it] for PVE servers, so we don't see a slew of these scattered about the map, just the lasers our tribe put down?

Looks good, a clever solution. Makes me think of being able to get one of these to hover above my favorite roaming dino, he's always getting lost.

@testerb, Just released an update regarding the brightness of the lasers, I adjusted them to be less bright, and Ive set them up so the higher up in the air you are the better you can see them, hopefully they are perfect for you now ^^

@Awesome!

@testerb, thanks for your comment and sure I can see what I can do when it comes to the brightness of the lasers, in the near future they will have a toggle option with 3 levels of brightness

These are great ! Thanks for sharing! Any chance the light they give off could be dimmed, or perhaps made to be adjustable?

This is a Re-make of my original Mod: Points of Interest, this Version is a lot better polished and updated with suggestions from others, Enjoy!

A rating is much appreciated!
