**Use the "Occupied" field to enter the name(s) of any corps/alliances that occupy (have POSes) in the system

**You can also mark the system as "Dangerous": if you know there are aggressive pilots around ready for a fight or "Important": if there is anything of great interest in the system like several Instrumental Gas sites for example. To mark it as either one of these designations, scroll all the way down in the "Edit System" window and click on one of the radio buttons (not shown in the picture). If you do mark it anything other than "Regular", please put a note in the "Info" box explaining why

~~====Rescanning signatures after downtime====~~

All signatures in every system change IDs after downtime, making the mapper/bookmark intel out of date. The locations of the signatures don't change, just the IDs. If you come into a system that has not been updated after downtime, you will usually see the list of signatures in the mapper in grey text, instead of white. This isn't always the case so to be sure, you can compare the sig IDs in the mapper with the ones in your scanner window. If the system needs to be re-scanned:

~~#After making sure that there are no hostile active pilots around, find a safe spot and drop your probes~~

~~#Set your probes to a pinpoint formation and 1 AU~~

~~#Align the center of your probe formation with a corp bookmark you see in the Solar System map and hit analyze~~

~~#You should get a very strong hit (often 100%)~~

~~#Move your probes out of the way and hover your mouse over the signature and bookmark (the two should be right on top of each other) and note the old signature ID of the bookmark~~

~~#Now edit that bookmark by replacing the old signature ID with the new one that has the hit in your scanner window~~

~~#Also change the ID of the signature in the mapper~~

~~#Do this for all the old bookmarks that you see in the Solar System map~~

~~#Continue scanning any remaining (new) signatures in the system~~
