Dig & Deal v0.1.8.5 | Handheld Metal Detector Added!

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

I've added a new piece of equipment to help players who were having trouble locating items.

Introducing the Handheld Metal Detector! Unlike the regular metal detector, this one scans the exact spot you're looking at and gives you a signal when you're close to an item. The idea is to use it after you've already detected something with the standard metal detector, making it much easier to pinpoint the item's exact location before digging.

To use the Handheld Metal Detector:

  • Purchase it from the Shop > Equipment section.

  • While digging, hold Q to activate it.

  • Aim at the ground and scan nearby areas for a more precise signal.

The detector also features a built-in indicator light:

🔴 Red Light – You're looking too far away from the item's location.
🟡 Yellow Light – You're looking near the item.
🟢 Green Light – You're looking directly at the item's exact location.

Keep in mind that you cannot move while using the Handheld Metal Detector. It's designed for close-range, high-precision scanning rather than general searching.


Good luck finding those treasures!
