Interesting Items coming out soon...

[GruelThePurple]

Recall that in game terms, a SYSTEM is the star and all the planets/objects in orbit around it. This means all the items you normally see in the main scree.

A SECTOR is just a single block, which contains only a sun, or only a planet (with its moons).

Hence, a SYSTEM is made up of a grid of 13x13 SECTORS.

So, looking at this, the scanner array is a very interesting item, but I am not sure that it will work in the context you propose.

The Abilities file does have an entry for "Long Range Scanner - System", but it does not allow for multiple systems. There are no variables for range. The sector based scan does, but unless values that put it outside its current System carry into the next System (which I can not check right now), I am afraid that this neat idea is not implimentable within the current game framework.

However, if it does work, I would love to see it!
