Scanning: Difference between revisions

Line 195:

*Once you get it down to one result, close probes in, bring them to the same plane as the result, drop scan radius, and re-scan. 4 probes with enough strength is all that is required to find anything. One way to do this is to position the probes in a square around the result, with 4 of the slide arrows touching the result-circle.

*Repeat the process of dropping range, positioning arrows on the result circle, and rescanning until you get your result. If you hit the minimum probe range and still can't get 100%, try repositioning your probes more carefully. There are some sites that you may not be able to probe -- to get them, you can use Sisters probes, rig your ship, buy hardwired scanning implants, and/or train higher levels of the relevant skills.

*Repeat the process of dropping range, positioning arrows on the result circle, and rescanning until you get your result. If you hit the minimum probe range and still can't get 100%, try repositioning your probes more carefully & one at a time. There are some sites that you may not be able to probe -- to get them, you can use Sisters probes, rig your ship, buy hardwired scanning implants, and/or train higher levels of the relevant skills.

* You can increase scanning strength, in extreme cases, by placing a 5th probe on top of the signal, carefully arranged between the other 4 probes.
