About this mod Author’s original text
Observe
A BepInEx mod for R.E.P.O. that reveals nearby valuables at the press of a key.
What This Mod Does
Press F (configurable) to instantly reveal every valuable item within 10 meters of you — even through walls. Each revealed item pops the game's own discovery indicator (the same one you see when you look directly at a valuable), so it feels completely native. The same valuables are also marked on the map for a short, configurable time, so you can pull up the map and see where they are. The ability then goes on a short cooldown.
- Reveals all valuables in range — whether or not you've already discovered them.
- Uses the game's own discovery graphic, so the reveal looks and lasts exactly like the vanilla effect.
- Marks them on the map too — adds the game's native map icon for each revealed valuable, then removes its own markers after a set duration (your genuinely discovered valuables stay on the map as usual).
- Client-side only — only you see your reveal and map markers; it sends no network traffic and costs nothing to other players.
Usage
Press F during a level. Valuables within range pop their value for a moment, then the cooldown starts.
Configuration
Settings are in BepInEx/config/headclef.Observe.cfg or the in-game mod config menu:

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin
- The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
- Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
- Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
- Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.
Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file.
Install these first, or the mod will not work:
