There you go. You can bind it to a hot key. So it's like a module that doesn't take up any of your ships module slots. The only thing is that you have to press the button yourself. Sounds like a better deal to me. D-scan is now easier to use AND pilots don't have to waste a slot. All that's required on your part is to PAY ATTENTION.

I don't understand the negative feedback here. You guys are suggesting this would somehow assist pilots who normally are too unaware to even bother to use d-scan, but those pilots wouldn't fit this module. No, the pilots who would fit it are those who use d-scan all the time but are sometimes unable to hit it because they're too busy clicking and pressing other buttons. I've been there plenty of times while in wormhole space. It is sometimes very difficult to scan every two seconds while I'm trying to also watch the d-scan window and operate my ship.

Seriously, it's only going to help folks who already use d-scan.

All I have to say about that one is risk vs. reward. Besides, this should no longer be a problem. You can now be spamming your d-scan with one hand and clicking other stuff with your other hand.

This is the opposite of true. Anyone who currently d-scans would never give up a slot for a module that does it for them. This would only help people who don't bother to scan right now.
