FSS scanner bug - PS4

[GreyAreaUK]

Just had an odd one - I’m in the EOS CHRAEI QT-O D7-3120 system. Primary is a neutron star.

Went into the FSS and started to scan, then the screen went black after I zoomed in on an object. Wasn’t able to get out gain either, either by the circle key or by zooming out.Had to quit the game. Reloading it and trying again produced exactly the same results and I again had to quit.

Anyone else seen this?

There are quite a lot of problems with zooming in and out in FSS. Though I haven't seen your specific situation mentioned.
But yes, many people have trouble with FSS

I've had this happen 3 to 4 times on me, only common factor I could see was what I was trying to scan was a long way away. Hasn't happened to me on any scan under 90,000ls.

Some people also mention that problems occur with too many bodies on screen (like a gas giant with a lot of moons, for example)
I hope Fdev is on top of this

not just a PS4 bug. happens on PC as well.

thw wotk-around is if you really MUST scan it get closer. It seems to affect secondary solar systems far from thr primary star so target the secondary star and start flying towards it. When you get closer you should be able to scan.

Will replied to my post on the subject last week and said they're aware and working on it.
