Those are some pretty good questions. I strongly support the idea to make the chance of being scanned depend on more factors than _just_ ship size, although it's already a very welcome game play addition!

Well, I suppose the actual point of that change was to give more of a purpose to ships like the Sidey (though, one might ask along what exact criteria the term "like" is defined, here 
), so it ceases being perceived as a mere throwaway ship. I remember having read a post calling the Sidewinder just that.
But I agree that smuggling could do with some more depth on broader terms.

I much appreciate the constant updates.
Yesterday i sold my Clipper for an ASP and noticed the Paint Job now is visible from inside the Cockpit. (Except for the Jumpin Sequence in the Witchspace i think.)
Don't know with which Update or Patch this came tho, but i was really happy about it being fixed. Also the Slider on the X52 (or any axis) for Scanner Range and that Star Map Button for it.
Thank you for constantly polishing this great Game and listen to the Community as for the Vulture Price, Dev cam and such!

re: stuttering
I was fortunate enough the other week to upgrade from a 760 GTX to a 980 GTX. Although I cleared out my drivers completely (using Guru 3D's DDU utility) I found I was still suffering from some graphics corruption and more stuttering than with the old card.
The solution was to delete the contents of C:\Users\YourName\AppData\Local\Frontier Developments\Elite Dangerous\Options\Graphics folder and run the game.
Maybe this would help some of you with the increased stuttering problem, it's at least worth a go. You might like to make a backup of the folder before you do it and obviously it's at your own risk blah blah blah.

Any patch about the civil war going on in 78 Ursae Majoris? It is said in GalNet but there is nothing over there. Still doing missions to improve the Federation's influence.

Oh what is this? Will this add more "greeble" to the star texture? Currently huge stars have the same "detail level" than small stars and a change would help with a sense of scale. E.g. smaller and "noisier" textures and smaller solar flare eruptions.
This really, really should be fixed by 1.3.
I'm also not really sure what the point is in having low profile sidewinders for smuggling. Let's keep in mind you can only fit 10t of cargo on that ship, and since the promised boost to smuggling didn't actually make it in from what I've seen so far, who exactly are these changes for? Only newbies fly the sidewinder. A hauler trading regular commodites already outperforms a sidewinder smuggling illegal imperial slaves to a high demand.

Wow. Enough of the "naming after nonsense"
It's not dangerous, it's not criticism worthy. All it does is give some people an excuse to draw up a long list of "famous" people to make themselves look intellectual.
More examples of why the elite forums have to many peopl around thinking and acting like they are "elite"
Besides....nobody has mentioned a John Holmes station.....(jk)

I was expecting more Venom from Cmdr's.
And if anyone doesn't know who he was then they need their arses kicking
The stars are now brighter, with a vibrant hue being radiated and the shadow effect on all planets seems to be much more realistic now; everything in SC looked noticably better.
To expand a bit more on the previous reply, he was a well-known British author who wrote somewhat satirical fantasy novels. The main setting for his body of work is known as Discworld, hence the name of the station in question. His work may not be everyone's cup of tea but he certainly has a lot of fans among fantasy readers for his take on modern day issues in a light-hearted, but well-thought out context of a slightly ridiculous fantasy world.
Pratchett = Genius.
So many possibilities to choose from but my vote for a Sir TP rare goes to "Sapient Pearwood". Just hope FDev pick up on the groundswell.
