Hello CCP,

Just wondering if a small change could be made to how the survey scanner works.
It would be nice to see an auto repeat scanner, on say a 30-60s, cycle.

Along with this, would it be possible to take the survey scan results and add the yield information to the overview. would prefer if it was default in the Overview (Mining).

Also, would be even more awesome, if when there is an Orca in fleet/grid, its survey scan information would populate on the overview of the boosted mining vessels!

Thank you
xoxo

Interesting idea. But other scanners don't auto-cycle (cargohold scanner, d-scan, probes, etc), so I doubt it will happen.

The Survey scanner used to auto repeat a long time ago and the results would auto update... no idea why it was ever changed tbh

Nice idea OP

Lowering the average to make you look better since 2012.

Thanks, I did a search, but as we know, EVE forums aren't powered by google. :D

Every module should be able to be set to auto-cycle or cycle-once by the pilot.
