Revealing POIs in system - Which scanner does it?

Howdy folks! Short Question here.

Can't find any info about how the game shows structures on planet surfaces. There was a change regarding important "things" .
Which scanner, Detailed Surface Scanner or one of the Discovery Scanners does the trick?

Thanks in advance!

Depends on what you mean by the change: perhaps the Guardian ruins? If so, you only need a D-scanner fitted, and if you're within 1,000 ls of the body it's in, they'll show up on your contacts tab.
Otherwise, planetary bases will show up as "unexplored" on planets that you've yet to scan, and they should show up named once you scan the body, DSS or not.

Oh, and barnacles will show up on your contact list after you visit and scan them, but not before.

All this being said, I'd still recommend fitting a DSS whenever possible, especially with the new payouts.

Thank you very much marx, or is it rather Marx? [noob] You are very good Sir! Indeed. My question answered and problem solved, easy like kiss my hand.
I`m off for Merope and there is not much space to waste on my Courier, and not a minute to be lost! That's why I had to ask,
Thanks chap.
