Quickly find items or fluids in your factory with vim-like shortcuts. Hover any item and press <*> to jump to next. Or press <Shift-F> to open the GUI and select an item to find. Use <N> or the GUI slider to cycle through the results. Find placed items, items in chests, or items dropped on the ground, etc. See results highlighted in-game and marked on the map. Search by planet or space platform. See a directing arrow and distance away for items on the same surface.
Providing the player with new tools or adjusting the game interface, without fundamentally changing gameplay.
Version: 0.4.1 Date: 06. 06. 2025 Bugfixes: - Fixes a bug that could cause an error opening the gui (if on a save that didn't use v0.3.3). - Fixes ability to use built in search shortcut (ctrl-f) in the item picker.
Version: 0.4.0 Date: 06. 05. 2025 Features: - Adds the option to search for fluids in containers or machines. - Jumping with "*" or "#" can now automatically search with hovered item's fluid contents. When hovering a storage tank, wagon, pipe or pump, it will now search for the fluid inside. When hovering a machine producing a fluid, it will now search for the fluid product. Bugfixes: - Fixes a bug where the directing arrow distance text may not appear. - Fixes a bug where deleting an item with an arrow to it may cause an error. Changes: - The choose item/fluid button tooltips will show the selected item/fluid name if not empty. Info: - Fluid search results exclude pipes and pumps to focus on machines and containers. Offshore pumps are included in results but not regular pumps which are more like pipes. - If a pipe is empty at the moment of jumping, it will search for pipes not a past fluid. - Hovering recipes that produce an item and a fluid will search for the item. Exception: lava recipes that produce stone and a molten metal will search the molten metal. - Reset button will now also reset arrows and their text in case they become bugged.
Version: 0.3.3 Date: 05. 31. 2025 Features: - Adds a "Current" option to only search the planet or space platform currently being viewed. - Adds a refresh results button to the gui footer. - Adds a setting to automatically refresh results when opening the gui. Bugfixes: - Fixes a bug where sometimes the gui wouldn't close with ESC. Changes: - Adjusts the gui layout to use less vertical space.

If the gui is open, "Current" will automatically refresh whenever the surface changes.
Version: 0.3.2 Date: 05. 01. 2025 Features: - Searching a container with items will now search for the top item it contains. Changes: - Items held by robots will no longer appear when searching containers. Now the setting to search belts and inserters will also search robots.

If there are multiple items it will search for the first item (item w/ greatest count). - Robots transporting items are more similar to belts and inserters than containers.
Version: 0.3.1 Date: 03. 02. 2025 Features: - Adds a new recipes option to search for machines producing the item Info: - When a machine has a recipe to produce the item, it will be included in results. This allows finding machines that produce but don't currently contain the item.
