I would like to see the discovery scanner restored to its previous functionality. I don't think it directly clashes with the functionality if the FSS mode.
Why:-
1. It gives a quick overview of each system.
2. Most systems are boring and it makes determining this a simple process.
3. You get a basic map of the systems you have visited,. But no exploration data.
4. You only get a scan performed if you want it.
5. You do not get first discovered for any object automatically, you have to scan them separately.
6. This would not clash with the FSS mechanism as that replaces having to actually fly to each planet to scan it. (Not sure why stars are not included)
7. Travelling long distances can take weeks even if you are only in a system for under 2 minutes, after 1,000 jumps, you will have taken 33+ hours. That's real time!! FSS method to achieve the same would take at least 5 minutes per system. That's 2-3 times longer. No thanks!!
8. It provides a small income for each body in the system, which add up to a potentially large amount at end of the journey that justifies the time spent out in the black. With FSS scanned data, this would be a lot more!
So please FD can we have the old ADS functionality back? It can give an orbital plain if you like as well.
Oh and also, the duel hud mode should go. It's a right pain.
Thanks.
