Interesting Items coming out soon...

I forgot I had the game loaded on this machine (work and all)...

I attempted a simple test with Long Range Scanner III's to see if sector ranges would carry into the next system... They do not. I increased the ranges to 100, 1000, 10000, and 50000 and all had the same result; I could see anything within the system, but not outside of it.

I then tweaked a Research Facility to have the Long Range Scan - System attribute and gave it a value in the first catagory, of 2. Needless to say, that also did nothing outside the system it lived in. Increasing the value also did nothing...

Saddly, if this can be done, it is outside what I would have thought to use, and outside the default abilities of current scanners.
