AV METAL DETECTOR
METAL DETECTING & BURIED TREASURE
Sweep the ground with the original RDO metal detector, follow the dial, clicks and light to the spot, then dig up a chest with the Collector animation.
THE ORIGINAL DETECTOR
Drives Rockstar's own Online metal detector: the spinning dial, clicks, blinking light and controller rumble all scale with distance, pulsing faster as you close in.
▸ Pulsing or steady light mode
▸ Controller rumble on every pulse
▸ Works on horseback, digging on foot
COLLECTOR DIGGING
Stand on the spot and press Dig to play the Collector dig animation. A muddy strongbox rises from the ground and opens to reveal the reward prop inside.
▸ Chest mode or chest-free grab mode
▸ Replaceable chest model
▸ Reward props only visible to the digger
25 REWARDS, 9 LOOT TABLES
Coins, arrowheads, jewelry, heirlooms, battlefield relics, gold rush finds, coastal treasure and gems, modeled on what the Online detector turns up. Every reward has a matching prop.
▸ Weighted drops with min/max amounts
▸ Civil War coins, pocket watches, gold bars, rubies
▸ Add or reweight anything in config.lua
PLACE TREASURE IN-GAME
Stand anywhere and run /mdcreate with a loot table. The spot is saved instantly and the console prints a ready-to-paste config line. Includes a plan of 45 suggested spots across all five regions.
▸ 45 suggested spots in LOCATIONS.md
▸ Per-location detection and dig distance
▸ Dig uses your heading for a clean animation
FLEXIBLE RESET MODES
Choose what happens after a spot is dug up: back for everyone after a timer, gone until restart, or gone only for the character who found it. No SQL needed.
SERVER-DECIDED REWARDS
The server picks every reward and checks the detector item, distance and dig timing, so a location can never pay out twice. Walking away, dying, mounting up or ragdolling cancels the dig, and the same reward waits for the next try.
▸ Minimum dig time against speed exploits
▸ Full inventory keeps the treasure in the ground
▸ Cancelled digs never lose the reward
NOTIFICATION BRIDGES
Send messages through framework notifications, bln_notify or your own script. Bridges are small, unescrowed files that fall back to the framework if yours is not running, and /mdnotifytest shows which one is active.
ADMIN TOOLS
Create, delete, reset and inspect locations in game, toggle live detector diagnostics, and grant access by framework group or ace permission.
▸ /mdcreate, /mddelete, /mdreset
▸ /mdnearest and /mddebug diagnostics
▸ Admin groups or ace permission
