Would be fine if there will be a 5s/probe "alignment" penalty taking 40 seconds for all 8 probes to load into a saved configuration. Ideas For Drone Improvement Updated 11/30/12Catastrophic Uprising is Recruiting |

I was thinking 5% per level, but 10% is more online with all other scanning skills. Astrometric Alignment? 10% reduction of scan probe save configuration alignment time. Primary attribute: intelligence Secondary attribute: memory Training time multiplier: 4x Primary skill: Astrometrics IV Ideas For Drone Improvement Updated 11/30/12Catastrophic Uprising is Recruiting |

I stopped doing 3d patterns for that very reason. Ideas For Drone Improvement Updated 11/30/12Catastrophic Uprising is Recruiting |

Errr I thought this was about precision as well. Honestly to get a rushed pattern only takes about 10~20 seconds already Ideas For Drone Improvement Updated 11/30/12Catastrophic Uprising is Recruiting |

So I was wondering, how does any one think this would be implemented? Bookmarks use the system's grid to save the point in space, this would transfer from system to system making the same code impossible to use. Ideas For Drone Improvement Updated 11/30/12Catastrophic Uprising is Recruiting |

Bookmarks use the system's grid to save the point in space, this would transfer from system to system making the same code impossible to use. A bookmark saves a specific point in space. This would be more like a math equation, using the ship for the initial orientation as center point. Ship plus z axis 3.4AU, y axis 2AU and x axis 3.1AU for Probe 1 Etc for each probe in pattern. At that point you ship would need to be considered 0,0,0 if they were feeling generous then your ship would -0.05,0,0 as to not de cloak the scanning ship when loading a save Ideas For Drone Improvement Updated 11/30/12Catastrophic Uprising is Recruiting |

maybe we will see some of this come to fruition in Odyssey Ideas For Drone Improvement Updated 11/30/12Catastrophic Uprising is Recruiting |

Nice job. I'm sure this played a part. While I can say I like the probe pattern buttons, the new system serously cut the time to scan down a ship, to seconds with proper use of D-Scan and the new Probe patterns. I can see lots of tears comming from this. Ideas For Drone Improvement Updated 11/30/12Catastrophic Uprising is Recruiting |
