===On-board System Scanner===

The on-board scanner can be used to find [[Cosmic Anomalies]], which are combat, ore or ice sites. The combat sites contain rats depending on the site type, lower security space is more likely to find the harder sites (with higher rewards). ~~The on-board scanner can not be used while warping, unlike probes.~~ To find anomalies, open your on-board scanner by pressing ALT+D, select the "~~System~~ Scanner" ~~this~~ will show all sites within 64AU of your ship immediately at 100%. When you have found an anomaly, warp there or create a bookmark of its position. Once an Anomaly has been completed, it will disappear after some time. These sites can also be found by probes which will find all sites within range at 100% (warpable) on the first scan even with one probe~~. They can be distinguished from exploration sites because they do not show up on scans filtered down to cosmic signatures, as they are cosmic anomalies~~.

To find anomalies, open your on-board scanner by pressing ALT+D, select the "Probe Scanner" tab (noting that you do not need to be carrying probes or a launcher) and ensure the "Show Anomalies" checkbox is checked.
