File this system under the "unnecessary waste of time" and "all your little things"

May we please fix the way this works? Either make it work logically, or get rid of "ignore results" No reason a hi-tech amazing covert recon scanning uber-ship should need to re-ignore results after jumping systems within a few minutes. Especially when probes are still out and you reconnect.

System A -
1- Deploy probes, 2- Shuffle probes, 3- Mark signals, 4- Ignore ID results
(Repeat 2-4 several times)
Explore Discovered System B
Deploy probes - (Repeat 2-4 several times)
Combe back to System A 2 minutes later or switch ship in system A
Reconnect to probes in space - Scan again - all ignored results appear again
Ignore results

Scan IDs should be ignored/remembered at least for the day. Scanning is tedious enough, rightfully so, but we should not have to rework some thing we JUST DID.

Another reason why I'm glad I don't have to scan often. Smile

Interestingly enough, I was going to mention the same thing.

This indeed is very annoying and I don't think it was always this way.
I remember reconnecting to probes in a system and not having to do this, but now I do.
Definitely not something that brings strategic difficulty tot he game.

Just mind-numbing @ss pain.
Please fix this. Remember/ Ignore ALL scan ID across all systems for the day.

Personally I just scan everything and bookmark it before leaving system so that when I get back I won't care.

I have nothing to say to combat scanners however.

Yes I do this as well, that way you can cross reference what pops up. But anomalies and sites can pop up within a few minutes and cross referencing against bookmarks is just a runaround to the annoyance.

Always ways around waste of times, but why not just remove the waste of time?

Yep, scanning is far from perfect at least it got some real luv. I remember the days before the alt/shift move combos were available...
I think there is no dev time available to add some nice lil things until march 2143.
