The '''Geiger Counter''' is an unsplicable hand item which was added on December 12, 2014.


== How to use  ==
==Function==
When equipped, this item will emit 3 different colored rings around your player, namely '''Red, Yellow & Green. '''Each color has a respective distance.  
{{Added|You are detecting radiation...}}
*  No Rings- The Item is very far away.
{{Removed|Geiger Counter removed.}}
*  Red- The item is relatively far.
{{Item/Mod|Geiger Counting|Miscellaneous|misc=locate radioactive items|note_1=Only item that allows player to locate radioactive items}}
* Yellow- You are near it.
* Green- You are very near it.


====== Green(faster)- You are just a couple of blocks away. ======
The item may emit one of these types of signal rings which tell how far the player is from the source of radioactive point in the world:
== Possible Drops ==
*No rings - Very far.
Upon reaching the hidden source of radioactivity you will receive either one the follow items:
*Red rings - 15-30 blocks away from the source.
* A [[Radioactive Chemical]]
*Yellow rings - 7,5-15 blocks away from the source.
* Assorted [[Crystals|Crystals]]
*Green rings - 4-7,5 blocks away from the source.
** Blue Crystal
*Rapid green rings - 0-4 blocks away from the source.
** Green Crystal
** Red Crystal
** White Crystal
** Black Crystal


== Effects ==
Once the player stands for a few moments on the source of radioactivity, the item they found will be added into their inventory. If the player's inventory is full, the item will be [[Dropping|dropped]] on the tile they are standing. The player will then receive the ''[[Mods/Irradiated|Irradiated]]'' [[Mods|mod]] for 30 minutes (15 minutes on [[Geiger Day]]) and their Geiger Counter will turn into a [[Dead Geiger Counter]].
After finding the source, you'll have an effect called "''Irradiated''." This means, you'll not be able to find any radioactivity for 30 minutes.


Note: If the Geiger Counter is used on Night of The Comet Event, the geiger will always emit Green (faster) ring, probably because of the Comet is Radiation...
The list of all possible rewards can be seen below.

The Geiger Counter is an unsplicable hand item which was added on December 12, 2014.

Function

File:CheckboxEnabled.png   You are detecting radiation...
File:Checkbox0.png   Geiger Counter removed.

When equipped, the Geiger Counter grants the Geiger Counting mod, which allows the player to locate radioactive items.

The item may emit one of these types of signal rings which tell how far the player is from the source of radioactive point in the world:

  • No rings - Very far.
  • Red rings - 15-30 blocks away from the source.
  • Yellow rings - 7,5-15 blocks away from the source.
  • Green rings - 4-7,5 blocks away from the source.
  • Rapid green rings - 0-4 blocks away from the source.

Once the player stands for a few moments on the source of radioactivity, the item they found will be added into their inventory. If the player's inventory is full, the item will be dropped on the tile they are standing. The player will then receive the Irradiated mod for 30 minutes (15 minutes on Geiger Day) and their Geiger Counter will turn into a Dead Geiger Counter.

The list of all possible rewards can be seen below.
