I added a live in-game proximity radar & enemy tracker to my map app (with threat altitude arrows)

Quick update on the live tracker app I posted about recently. I added a live in-game proximity radar HUD so you don't even have to alt-tab anymore to see what's around you while playing.

  • Live Enemy Tracking: It scans nearby enemies (Farmbots, Tapebots, Haybots, Totebots) in 360° and shows red threat icons with altitude arrows so you know if they are above you (▲), below you (▼), or on your level (●).
  • In-Game Full Map Overlay: You can press M anytime in-game to summon the full interactive map over your screen, and press Esc or M to go right back to playing without messing up your mouse cursor.
  • Floating Radar HUD: The radar floats over your game and can be moved/resized anytime with F9.
  • POI Direction Arrows: It also shows nearby POIs (Mechanic Station, Trader, Packing Stations, Growlabs) with live distance indicators.
  • Co-op Squad Radar: Still has the squad rooms so you and your friends can see each other in real-time. Here is the repo and download:
    https://github.com/Srlimao/ScrapMechanicCoopMap You can just download the standalone .exe from releases and run it (no install needed). Make sure the game is in Borderless Windowed or Windowed mode for the overlays. Let me know what you think and send me any feedback or bugs!

If you also get lost I built a live position tracker map desktop app

I was inspired by KornPlays map generation in survival save, and since I still get lost I made this desktop app getting the player posittion from memory when you have the game open.

  • Also a neat feature, you can connect with your friend and see eachother in the map.
  • here is the git https://github.com/Srlimao/ScrapMechanicCoopMap
  • you can check the code and the readme, but you can download and just run the app, no install needed
  • its still work in progress, but most of it already works
  • Send me feedback
