Treasure location is saved on the item as metadata
Admin command /givescanner [id] to give digiscanner with metadata properly set

Installation

Drag and drop into your resources file and ensure glow_treasure in your server.cfg
To make the player unequip the digiscanner when the item gets removed from their inventory go to qb-inventory/client/main.lua, find the event inventory:client:CheckWeapon and add the following

    RegisterNetEvent('inventory:client:CheckWeapon', function(weaponName)
    -- Start of Added Code
    if weaponName == "digiscanner" or weaponName == "metaldetector" then
        TriggerEvent("glow_treasure_cl:scannerRemoved")
        return
    end
    -- End of Added Code
    if currentWeapon ~= weaponName:lower() then return end
    local ped = PlayerPedId()
    TriggerEvent('weapons:ResetHolster')
    SetCurrentPedWeapon(ped, `WEAPON_UNARMED`, true)
    RemoveAllPedWeapons(ped, true)
    currentWeapon = nil
end)

If the player uses a weapon, causing the digiscanner to unequip, an event needs to be triggered to stop the loop that maintains the scaleform.
- Go to qb-weapons/client/main.lua
- Find the event weapons:client:SetCurrentWeapon
- Add TriggerEvent("glow_treasure_cl:weaponUpdated")

RegisterNetEvent('weapons:client:SetCurrentWeapon', function(data, bool)
    if data ~= false then
        CurrentWeaponData = data
    else
        CurrentWeaponData = {}
    end
    CanShoot = bool
    -- Added event
    TriggerEvent("glow_treasure_cl:weaponUpdated")
end)

Add items to qb-core/shared/items.lua

	["digiscanner"] 			     = {["name"] = "digiscanner", 					["label"] = "Digiscanner", 				["weight"] = 2000, 		["type"] = "item", 		["image"] = "digiscanner.png", 			["unique"] = true, 		["useable"] = true, 	["shouldClose"] = true,    ["combinable"] = nil,   ["description"] = "Used to scan for things.."},
	["shovel"] 			     		 = {["name"] = "shovel", 						["label"] = "Shovel", 					["weight"] = 3000, 		["type"] = "item", 		["image"] = "shovel.png", 				["unique"] = false, 	["useable"] = true, 	["shouldClose"] = true,    ["combinable"] = nil,   ["description"] = "A handy shovel."},

Add item images to your inventory script
When giving players a digiscanner use the export GenerateScannerMetadata to set the the treasure coords

 local info = exports["glow_treasure"]:GenerateScannerMetadata()
 Player.Functions.AddItem("digiscanner", 1, nil, info)

If you have a thread running on your server that disables aim assist, it may interfere with the scanner. See here on how to fix it christikat#2 (comment)
