There is a huge delay on the d-scanner now. It's really unnerving since it's only the most important tool in wormhole space. I absolutely need it to update quickly or I cannot be sure I noticed what was in here. I also absolutely have to be sure I read it correctly, and getting a fancy waterfall effect just makes that a lot harder, and unnecessarily so. What if the enemy I need to see is at the bottom of that list, and that list is really long? Then I'll be screwed over! Please give back un-waterfalled scan results!

It's also pretty darn important in null sec when invading territory or when trying to stay safe.

Why must there be a delay and a "nice" waterfall on the d-scan? How does it make the game more "immersive"? There's been a lot of these small UI changes lately, like the new camera, the loss of tab to clean the UI, etc, and I'm getting a bit frustrated...

Please don't fix things that aren't broken!

Agree, CCP this new Di-Scan fade effect is awful and also kind of gamebreaking for all people who live in a wormhole.

for 44 entries to display, it takes roughtly 4,3 seconds (framed it, so i guess it's 0,1s/entry).

that simply sucks.
i'm actually not sure you devs guys ever lived in a wormhole but to remind you, in a wormhole the only reliable thing is your discan. and if your discan is displaying everything delayed, you got a massive problem. especially when you have to have a huge amount on things on your discan. also, when discanning in a wormhole, you have to notice a difference between 2 discans. with that new discan mechanic, u have to remember the exact number every time which is definitely gamebreaking for WH.

summary:
-gamebreaking for WH.
-as the one above me said, also gamebreaking for NS

solution: remove this dumb fade effect (//displaying delay), that effect is breaking it. make it as it was before, that worked perfectly.

Please turn off this fade effect in DSCAN, it makes the game slow and clunky and not enjoyable to play with.

Have to agree with this.... It's not even nice that effect, it just feels like the game is lagging ever so hard.

I thought that there was something wrong with d-scan but since I was logi at the same time I didn't give it more thought. Please fix CCP. Remove this and for love of god give us back tab to clean up UI.
