Mods always need resources. So I'm using them wisely.
The game itself support labels with icons on the map.

So please describe why someone should install the mod and what are the benefits from using it.
What is the cost of scanning? Every tick? Once all 1000 ticks?

I wasn't aware the game now has an option to automatically tag resource deposits and I can't seem to find an option to activate it so perhaps you would enlighten me ?

Scanning is only done when you press Shift-G to generate labels and the amount of ticks between chunk's scanned can be set in the settings if your worried about impacting performance during a scan, once the labels are generated there is no performance cost at all.

Tbh for vanilla it's not that much of a use.
For modded games - very useful :)
Thanks for updating it.

Yeah I just updated it because I was having trouble finding certain modded ores, its easier than hurting your eyes crawling over the map :)

For "vanilla" it's of use especially for coal, because I find coal patches rather hard to see on the map. Maybe I'm just too old? Either way, labels are more obvious than just colored patches.
