Field notes
Align with the seeded echo and pulse using the visible control. Complete the required progress before selecting the discovered destination.
Hull scanner affinities and fitted modules improve scanner performance. The latest Farstar affinities are listed per hull; there is no single universal 10% hull scanner bonus.
A resolved combat signal opens a separate fitting assessment in Experimental. C-rating belongs to encounter difficulty; it is not your scanner level.
