I can't figure out how to scan while inside a wh. I launch the probes, go to position them with the map, and they don't show up on the map. This only happens to me when inside a wh, it works fine any other time.

Well, maybe I'm doing something wrong, I'm still new to this. Can you give me a step by step guide of what you do when scanning in a WH?

Hit escape, go to the General Settings tab, uncheck "Try the new map".
The map is bugged - don't use it.

No idea who at CCP thought it would be a good idea to make that map the new standard map.
It should have never left alpha in that state.
(alpha = still adding features, beta = fixing bugs... it's still missing some basic features and is bugged to hell. yet they pushed it not only to beta, but to release)

You need to turn the new map off.

Hit escape, go to general settings, unclick the button at the bottom left that says ''Try the new map''.

This will revert to the old map and all you problems will be solved

Thanks... The newest update reset the new map as default, and I was getting ready to petition CCP with a bug report. maybe I should, this needs to be fixed so it works right whenever scan probes are launched... And it's only the wormholes new map works fine for regular space scanning...

I had this problem, but I realized that probes you drop default to a scan radius of .25 au, which makes them hard to see on the map. So in other words, change the radius to be bigger.
