About this mod

Improves the range of close scan around stations and scan all the components of the station at one time.

Permissions and credits
Description:

By default the game has very short close-scan and It's very difficult to unlock all Info points of stations components, making you slaloming again and again between buildings.

However, there was the excellent SkipStationScan mod that allows you to do without scanning a station to unlock all the information points. But I find it too powerful. I like scanning stations closely.


RangeStationScan is therefore a mid-way alternative that requires you to get closer to the stations using the close-scan, but unlocks all the component information of the station at one time, instead of having to do it component-by-component.


_____________________

Installation:

- place the mod in "Documents\Egosoft\X4\32637007\extensions" folder


_____________________

Use:

- in game, use the Close-Scan near a station (by default MAJ+é)
- in the menu-dialog that appears, by default the scan-station is off. Press SCAN OFF to activate the scan-station or SCAN ON to deactivate it
- when you unblock a station component with the SCAN ON, you unblock all the components of the station
- this menu-dialog (SCAN ON / SCAN OFF) is automatically disappears when you leave the Close-Scan (by default MAJ+é) or if you choose "Back" in the menu-dialog with the Close-Scan activated (your choice SCAN ON or SCAN OFF will continue to work if you leave the menu-dialog or the Close-Scan)

Enjoy.

Tested in X4 Foundations, version 2.6 and 3.0

_____________________

RangeStationScan is compatible with :
- BetterScanColors
- Signal_Leak_Hunter
- Skip Station Scan (although I don't see the point of using both)
- X4 CHEAT MENU ( but we use the same routine)

_____________________

if you want to scan all the stations of an entire sector at once, prefer to use X4 CHEAT MENU


_____________________

Known bugs:

- Sometimes the scan snaps too far if you point to a station from a distance, without working. You must be remote from the close-scan with the visible colors of station sections to work ideally.
- Storage sections seem to work differently than other sections and often appear well before scanning the station (I don't know the reason).
