The Resource Finder is a Hand-Crafted tool. To get the blueprint for the Resource Finder go to the Old Workshop dive spot near Critter Cove. This location is marked on your map during the quest The Resource Finder. The Resource Finder is used by equipping it in the tool bar and using it. Upon doing so, the Resource Finder will make a small blip sound, and a small circle will pulse out from the machine. The player can then check the map and zoom in to see icons of the various resources available. It has only a limited range and limited number of uses. The current number of uses is 5. After that, the Resource Finder will break, and the player will have to craft another.

The Resource Finder[]

  • The quest is given to the player by Copperbottom following the completion of the sub-quest "Chop Barricades." He explains that acquiring additional resources will be necessary in the completion of the Workshop. To do this, the player must go to the northeastern shore of the island and dive to the Old Workshop. While it is not necessary to acquire the blueprints, if the player plans to spend an extended amount of time in this location, they may wish to acquire the Scuba Scuba before proceeding in this quest.
    • The Journal entry for The Resource Finder reads: "Copperbottom told me about a device that I can use to see what resources are neaby*. I need to look for the blueprints located with* an old sunken workshop off the east coast of Critter Cove."
