====D-Scan====

However, should you find yourself alone with a neutral in system then D-Scanning is your best defense. As you are in a mission site, other players cannot warp directly to the site or scan the site down themselves with core probes. They need to use combat probes to scan your ship down first. What this means is that you have some breathing room first and shouldn't necessary warp straight out of the site. Warping away from the mission without need to only ~~slows~~ down site completion times, meaning less profit. You should always ensure that you have combat probes selected as part of your D-Scan filter. It will generally take at least 4 "combat" probes at a distance of 2 AU or less to pinpoint your position. A good rule of thumb is to run the scan at 360° at a range of 5-10 AU. Probes outside that range are not close to finding you, and ships outside that range will probably take some time to get a fix on your position.
