I'm a little confused about the Exploration situation.

I spent about a half hour exploring a system, and then I slowed down to investigate an unknown signal source. There was a pirate there in an Anaconda, who said that all he wanted was my cargo. Although I did not have any cargo in my Eagle, he blew me up anyway, just for sport I guess. I didn't even see it coming: I was dead before I saw the flash.

The point is, that when I revived in the station and got a replacement ship, all of my scan data was lost. I had spent a half hour collecting it.

So, here's the dilemma. I cannot re-scan the objects that I had previously scanned for some reason. Why is that? If they're already in my ship navigation computer, then the scan information that I had should be profitable. If the scan data was lost, then the data should not be in my nav computer, and so I should have to re-scan. If I re-scanned, then I should be able to sell that cartography info.

So, how does this work?
 
All data blew up with your ship, unfortunately. That's how it is.

*hugs*

And what do you mean you can't rescan?Are System's bodies already known to your ship? *smells a bug*
Or did you by chance check that system on the galaxy map while docked at the station?

It's a bug, but I'm pretty sure it was stated in the latest patch notes that it was fixed. If you're finding this bug again, submit a ticket to FD.
 
Try logging out and logging back in / restart the game.

Also.. how do you submit a ticket? I have encountered several bugs and would love to submit them.
 
Seems better now

I got into a different ship (not the replacement for the destroyed one) and found the objects were still yet to be scanned, so I can still scan them and then sell them elsewhere.
