The detector HUD reads nothing

It only reads while you hold right click to sweep, on a metal detector hunt, on foot. Chests register from 15 m. It cannot be used from a vehicle or with diving gear on.

"You need a metal detector for this hunt" even with Config.GiveMissingTools on

The free tool is given once every 15 minutes per character, so it cannot be farmed. A hunter who no longer has the one they were given has to buy another. The tool is checked again on every dig, not only at the start.

"You need a treasure key" / "You need an ancient key"

Each crate costs a treasure_key and the ancient chest an ancient_key for whoever enters the code. They are sold in the shop. To drop the requirement, set Config.RequireTreasureKey or Config.RequireAncientKey to false.

"Your inventory is full"

The find did not fit. The chest is put back, the key is not spent and nobody else loses it. Make room and open it again.

"You are too far away"

The server measures where it sees your ped, not where your screen says you are. Chests and the chest code are accepted within 8 m, measured flat; a diver floating above a crate counts.

The underwater crates cannot be found

They spawn when you are within 80 m of each one and glow from 30 m, on the sea bed rather than the surface. Swim lower. If the sea bed is out of reach, the zone in Config.UnderwaterTreasureChestLocations is over water that is too deep; move it.

The totem readings keep fading, or a totem opens nothing

Fading is the puzzle: hold the third totem and both readings stay steady for everyone within 25 m. Totems and the beacon only answer crew members standing at the site, so a member who stayed behind gets nothing.

"Too many wrong tries — the chest scrambled itself"

After Config.Puzzle.MaxAttempts wrong answers the cipher is rebuilt, so the old key no longer works. Read both totems again. Spaces never count against an answer.

Diving gear randomly stops working

Another diving resource is writing the same scuba flags. Set Config.ManageDivingGear = false and let that resource own the air.

"This map is for a different kind of hunt"

A clue_map only works on a metal detector hunt and a treasure_map on an underwater one, and both only during a hunt. The map is not spent when it is refused.
