I notice that as I train up these skills the hotspots on the planets I scan change location.
Is it worth training both of these skills to 5?
Does having both at 5 mean scanning of planets is 100% Accurate?
Why is it some hotspots seem to "move" even after I trained up my planetology skill so high?


Can somebody list the formulas behind these skills and the planetary scanning system?

I personally feel my time is better spent elsewhere... you'll have to answer that question for yourself.

I believe all increases are in percentage increments (meaning 100% accuracy is impossible... 99.99% may not be)
Unfortunately, without some numbers to crunch, it's impossible to tell.

All hotspots move. However, your scanning accuracy will effect how much they *appear* to move.

I'll be monitoring this post for the answer to this questions.... you betcha

So if 100% accuracy is not possible then why the hell bother training the skills?

I still do not understand.. How accurate can you actually get assuming all planet skills are at 5?

I don't know if 5 gets you 100% accuracy, I have them at 4 myself.

I DID notice that the accuracy improved considerable from 0 to 4 in both. which effectively increased my yield by about 40% or so.

It would be nice to know for sure.
