Question: Things on the user interface I noticed.

So under your stats if you look at exploring stats it mentions "level 2 detail scans" and "level 3 detail scans" - But I've scanned stuff with the detail scanner and I've got 0 on these. Is this something meant for the future or a glitch?

Also, under Insurance there is also a listing for "Cargo Insurance" as well as ship insurance, but cargo insurance doesn't exist. Again, something planned for the future and just being given space in the meantime?

Lastly - I found an Ammonia world with Ammonia life forms. Just how rare are those? That's my first.

Placeholders I imagine CMDR
Ammonia life? Stinky Jelly Aliens!

I thought the detailed scans would count as Level 2 (Level 3 for a future super detailed scanner), but I have 0 as well so can only assume its bugged or is going to be used for something else.

Ammonia worlds are uncommon, but not rare. At least in my experience. They are easier to find than Earth-like worlds. Those seem to be rare.

Apparently this works on 1.2, they said something about a wing doing collaborative scan, I imagine 2 ships = level 2, 4 ships = level 3?

Hmm.... I hope not! I was hoping they would refer to, say, a close pass atmospheric scan and a surface landing scan. I guess we'll find out soon enough.

I'm not sure about ammonia life forms, but I do know for certain that if you have enough beans in your chili, you can create your own methane atmosphere in rather short order. However, I've noticed that it tends to be hard to breathe at that point, so I can't positively ascertain if there are any lifeforms nearby capable of surviving long in it.

That was just a speculation of course. I do wonder what collaborative scan will bring though if not Level 2 & 3...
