Sensors and Scanners

Sensors and Scanners have multiple uses in the game. I listed the Benefits below. The max amount of Scanners/sensors allowed on a ship is 5.

  • Increases the chance to successfully scan for planets
  • Increases the chance your ship will critically strike in combat
  • Increases your hacking potential and defense
  • Increases the chance of finding random cloaked ships

1 While installed, Datastream Compilers give Explorers and Hackers double the Scan bonus.

2 While installed, Datastream Compilers give Aerlen, Genetarr, and Xecti double the Defense bonus.

3 Genetarr Transmitter will install as Mark II If you are higher than rank 50 when you first install it. It is therefore highly recommended that you wait until rank 50 before installing it.
