Level 2/ Level 3 scans for exploration - when ?

[Devil's Refugee]

Is there any update on when this will be available ? I didn't see a mention in 1.1 (albeit a cursory glance)

Stupidly I've not taken any notes while exploring so haven't jotted down which systems I've visited, and more importantly which contained interesting planets/ stars worth going back for. As exploration is one of the core elements of the game I'd have expected the detailed L2/L3 mechanics to have shipped on launch. It's a little frustrating having spent a week out in deep space so far only to bring back a third of the potential data I could be collecting, and won't be able to relocate those worlds for detailed scanning (my fault on that one)

Please FD, any word ?

Just a thought, if they are implemented in 6 months or a year (only level 2), if could make exploring profitable/interesting for new players at that time.
FD might wait, until explorers start complaining, that they have seen many systems already and exploring became boring. Maybe, a level 2 scan needs flying around the planet up close for a change.

Or they are implemented together with decreasing profits for follow-up explorers. Currently, every new visitor to a system earns the same.

ETA 2017. Btw, you don't need notes, if there are unpopulated systems that you have system information for, chances are you have been there.
