The wide-range ore scanner would be a rather large device, perhaps comparable to that of the warp gate core, restricting its usage to dedicated mining ships. Therefore, here's my idea for an upgrade to the material point scanner, the Wide-Range Ore Scanner. ok, I guess? It has a pretty piss-poor range and I've honestly just found it easier to just fly close enough to use my u-tool or visually identify them instead of bothering with an entire scanner setup.
