not supported. There shouldn't be an instant 'find my ship' and part of the issue were macros doing the scanning for people.
The only point where i could instantly find your ship is, when there's only one belt in scanrange and your dumb enough to hunt there. When i find u in other belts, it's pure luck.
But yes, macros are a problem ... and will be. The 2 second delay will only help them ...

Directional scan should be for very close range scans only and should have a delay.. speed of light limit at least.
Yea, let's go all realistic in this internetspaceshipgame.

Combat probes are so good that you can zero a BS in under 10s.
Launching 4 probes takes already up to 5 seconds (take the little lag into account). Then positioning them maybe another 5 seconds. And then u can only get a warpable result with 5/5 skills or/and u need to know which planet the ratter is. Then almost another 10 seconds to warp there.

If he's paying attention (and most aren't) he will only be beginning to align by then, it may take him another 13-30s to warp. That's plenty of time.
Ravens don't have enough Lowslots to fit that many plates so it would take 30s to alingn and warp.

Directional scan should not be a wtfpwn button. Reduce it to a 1s delay and and the range to 10AU.
Yea, it's for sure a wtfpwn button.  It also shoots for u and instalocks targets.
So to conclude ... have u been ganked lately?

2s delay sux.
make it 10 at least.
Fixed that for you
Less scans = less server stress = less lag
What is it that everyone always says around here:
ADAPT OR DIE
Let's take away one slot of high, medium and low on every ship.
Less modules = less server stress = less lag
Or even better ... get rid of that third dimension ... we're fighting off the overview already anyway and most systems are quiet flat already, let's get back to something like this. THAT could really help with the lag.

I actually got a reply from a GM about this whole "CCP not reacting" and he said the issue should be written down in "Features and Ideas Discussion" because this gets actually monitored by the devs. And to raise it to the CSMs ...
If someone would open a good thread in FaID it would be cool ... i won't, i'm bad at writing.

I got used to it ... like you can get used to drive a car with a flat wheel. You may control it, but it just don't feel right.
