Sorry, I can't help you there - VR/Horizons player here. All I heard is that a lot of people complain about the DSS in Odyssey.

it tends to be pain, when i think i understand it. i get proved wrong when i land at area that i think should have certain biological life present. but spend hours searching an area to find nothing. it doing my head in at times. bc i like finish finding things before i move to next

I think the dark blue just means the erm conditions for life are high in that region?
and is in no way a proof of life...………….
what annoys me is we could detect it within minutes with our current tech probably if in a low orbit
never one drop of rain on Arrakis or any where else for that matter ;)
now correct me if I am wrong no liquid water no life?
And now the galactic weather report...…………...
" there will be 0% chance of precipitation today so the general out look is dry with a small chance of space ship debris!"

Yeah, it's just blue = where it could be. The different shades don't mean anything as far as that's concerned. With biologicals it's about knowing what tends to grow in what circumstances, ie. osseus like rocks so you won't normally find them on the flat. Not sure if similar logic has been applied with geologicals now or it's just random as I haven't gone looking for them since Odyssey.

fly at 50-100m over the surface with 60 km/h and look around with your eyeball and you will find some in this blue areas

bacterial colonys you can see far mor better from above than with running/ driving around on surface.
but you must fly very slow and if you have some kind of head tracker or VR you can simply look around.

i recommend a small ship for it like a diamondback explorer. previously i did it with the asp explorer but on rough terrain you can not land nearby

So, given it occurs over area, the work involved with spawning more scatter objects goes up by the square -- even more to get earlier spawning and greater draw distance. We kind of need a couple orders of magnitude in performance upgrades to make eyeball-exploring more... "deterministic"; As it it, even if you fly really low and slowly, small plants can sometimes not spawn until you have already flown past them... :p

looks around for solutions networking high-powered gaming PCs until you have one whole dedicated machine for each pixel on screen... ;)
