A PHOT-powered radar(more like lidar) that automatically scans its surroundings and makes a distance map. The distance is measured in light half-spark-seconds(how much a photon moves in 4 frames). if you downvote, please tell why
light electronic sensor radiowaves radar lidar

    fun fact: this save might not work anymore in the newer versions(above 97.0, snapshots) because of changes in PHOT code, which make it slightly impossible to do pulsed lasers like i did

    @Esteban222 btw light and radio waves are the same

    @tommers you are thinking of sonar, radar uses radio waves, this uses light (which i guess you can technically call them radio waves :p), but as someone else said it, it might be better to use lidar to describe it

    its not like we have sound in this game to call it radar, its just a more common word that conveys they exact same message

    There's literally a word for this, lidar.
