Detectives Hunch Question
Here's my question, if I have a map with red twine and a crystal bead (track killer possessions and allow other survivors to see the auras created by using the map) and I complete a generator to activate detectives hunch, will the crystal bead also activate? The perk reads that if you have a map, any auras shown by it are added to the map, but since I'm not using the map directly, would crystal bead still activate?

You do get points for when DH activates for anything nearby after a Generator is complete, and the same goes for having the auras be kept in the map as well.
But for your specific question, no, Crystal Bead doesn't activate if you don't use the map. The next time you do use the map with the new recorded auras, it will show your team those new auras. Will it show them the aura readings during DHs activate when you have the map? No, because that aura reading is a separate aura reading from the map itself and it only shows it to you. You can however like I said, get the new auras recorded with the map... than press M2 to show people those new auras.
Here's the proof below that it records and rewards the player when DH activates.

it means the map will track those locations

I'm specifically asking if the crystal bead will activate when this happens. So when DH goes off and the stuff is added to the map, will all of the other survivors see the auras as well?

Crystal Bead only activates when you use the map. Period.
