advanced dna scaners
this probe only finds worp capable people, ho are of the same race
ie: a nanites sends this probe out
he will only find the nanites in the scan radius
all other races do not get found
this probe works by finding life forms of the same dna type
scanradius: 20
speed: warp 10
researchtime: 5 d
technology: e-rays, mycilloids, humans, kazuuula
needed research:
improved field theories
battle details:
battle engine syntax:

its so you can scan larger areas
you dont get all the small green blobs on your maps
you have somthing to bace normall probes on
people like me, like to find people if the same race
any of these any good for you |

This is not a good idea. Why should i only want to find planets of my own races? And the wide-range scan probe has almost the same scanradius, only slower. I want to find all planets and not some planets whit the same races.

I think it needs some tweaking, maybe increase the speed or the scannning radius for it to be effective. Or perhaps it should also display fleets of the DNA type. For instance humans can only see other human fleets.

I guess nanites can develop this probe, too? (they are mentioned in the description)
With double the radius, this one can scan 8 times the area of an investigation probe, but only shows 1/5 of the planets! If you use it in an alliance with at least one member of every race, its 60% more effective than scanning with investigation probes. Not bad, but i wouldn´t waste 5 days of researchtime on this. |
