Hello its Ricardo and welcome back to elite dangerous Beyond chapter four lots
of new updates have turned up and in particular is this scanner the new way
of scanning celestial bodies and surfaces of planets indeed yes all looks
a bit complicated doesn't it before we get into that I just got to say what the
graphics the graphic updates on this absolutely amazing you know they really
have lightened up space to be honest so scanning you've got two modes now you've
got a combat mode and you've got a scanning mode alright but you're going
to need to configure and we'll get into that a little bit later you can't do
scanning in combat mode and you can't do shooting in scanning mode so be mindful
of that anyway scanning planets and scanning stars you
can still rock up to the main star in the body and press T to target it and
scan it okay once you've got the scanning mode you can still use a
discovery scanner to do a sort of initial hunk and get your celestial
plane that's fine everything's fantastic with that then it starts to get a little
bit what seems to be complicated but really once you do it it isn't when I
first opted I thought oh I'm not going to get on with this and here is the
spectrum scanner now in all its glory no you say you are gonna have to configure
it and bind it to certain key mappings but the idea is you move the cursor over
a celestial body of which there aren't and really that I haven't found in this
area and then using the spectrograph at the
bottom you could say you tuned in to the resonance frequency of the planet
and then you zoom in and then you scan it so they're just rocking in and going
honk there's all the planets and instead of sort of rocking up to each individual
planet just to get a planet scan you can do it this way
um so like I say perhaps not the best system we're gonna jump to another one
and see how that goes and what we're gonna do then is we're gonna get some
scanning on so we are we're just dropping out here's the main star so
we're gonna scan this straightaway thank you very much and then we're going to
find all these unexplored worlds now here comes the tricky bird so I say the
tricky part the new part it's just new as you can see it's all unexplored you
look at the system map some commanders have already been there already if you
are new to the system you'll get your name put on it
look at the 3d map of the system in the system a plaid I had quite a bit of work
done to it you can see what sort of planets are on what plane
now into the scanner so you've got these arrows these are pointing to where
different bodies and you can see these glowing these glowing blue dots or blurs
now we fixated on one there's a red circle around which means we can zoom
into it we can use the slider now you'll see from this are taking a snapshot it
moves quite quickly the inner circle is yellow right which means I'm right on
the many on that spectral analysis bar I've slid it all the way over to the
left-hand side this is going to be a signal source right which means I can
now zoom in and analyze it so you've got to get that internal circle as yellow it
seems complicated but it isn't really you see degraded emissions detected all
right so if you go and think about and look for some more planets and other
things like that then as long as you get that inner circle is yellow you can scan
it from this distance so we'll move on to this one what's that that's gonna be
another signal source because the inner circle is yellow and the spectrum bar
you see is over to the left-hand side again another degree in emissions
detected job moving on let's get to a planet
okay so here's some glowing blue dots we've zoomed in into the middle you can
see where that is distortions are in that bar and we found a planet again
ensuring that inner circle is yellow jointly it took me a little while to get
my head around this about 5 10 minutes I thought it's actually quite good it's
not as hard and fast as what youth it was the last time Rocking
honk yeah fantastic we're on we've got everything but yeah travel to every stir
in the system to scan it like this now without service coming in a little while
but I just want to emphasize this then I think this is actually good bonus in the
game it's a great addition some people might say oh I don't like it
I don't like it I like honking and then rocking out I like I don't like that
this is gonna save your time unless you want to go over there in surface-mount
something right again you're gonna fly over this is gonna save time and gives
you a bit extra depth in gameplay I think anyway so they are scanning
planets scanning signal sources and we discuss at the signal sources as well
have gotten to them but they are persistent meaning that if you leave the
system you can come back in okay so let's have a think about what we're
gonna do with surface scanning no surface scanning you're gonna need a
surface scanner for this nothing's really changed there so what you do is
is your rock up to this planet alright as you get close to it it'll scan and
tell you exactly what it is if you haven't scanned it already you're gonna
go into scanner mode right obviously not combat mode because we're doing scans or
scanning and what you're gonna do is once you get in range right you're gonna
be able to fire probes off at this planetary body to map the surface no
more Marquand eyeballs looking for stuff okay so there is our planet we're in
range as we can see we're in range we've engaged the surface scanner and then
we're gonna fire probes off as you can see I'm firing probes now you have
unlimited probes you're gonna fire them off and when they hit the surface it's
gonna pulse a bit like
the scanner pulse that moves us can make a ships as you can see and that is gonna
map a percentage of what you can see at the surface of the planet simple as that
so no more flying really low over planets looking for things the idea is
apparently you fire these probes off they hit the surface of the planet that
then returns all the telemetry and then you get to view the surface of this
planet from from the system map and get all that information just like that it's
a really cool effect I think some of the explorers might say all I liked flying
over planets and looking for things that added to the mystery but now technology
has kind of got in the way of that and you're able to fire all these probes off
and it's lovely sort of effect it's not that planet surface pretty cool I
thought so there you go this is a brief overview I'm not saying I'm right in
everything I've said and to be fair I probably haven't made an L of a lot of
sense as I understand it that's where we are with scanning so what you have to do
to remember is you can't do scanning in combat mode can you scan in scan mode if
you want to scan the surfaces of planets then be sure to have a detailed surface
scanner get into range fire off your probes if you want to do the normal
scanning scan the stur do a hunk in scanning mode that will give you your
celestial plane of where all the planets are gonna be and then focus with the
spectral graph analyzer as we've seen in this video and then you'll be able to
tune in to planets or signal sources
and do you discoveries that way so I've been Ricardo this has been a leak
dangerous chapter four beyond and my first look at the scanner I daresay as
we continue to play it every win skills with the scanner right will become more
advanced anyway thanks for watching check out for more videos in the series
and I'll see you soon
you
you
