See everything in your star system.

Overview
Once the equipment has been activated, it lists every single object in the star system, in order of distance. Note that the direction of each object is not given (although one of the options is to point your ship in the direction rather than move besides it)! If you want to see if there is a Generation ship or a Thargoid around, this will tell you! It also gives the bounty of each object, if applicable.
Telescope does not have the unlimited range - or the unlimited number of items (200 maximum), but is rather more useful as it does give direction.
For notes on use of primable equipment such as this, see Priming Equipment
Long Range Scanner only works during flight and it is activated by an F6-F6-F5 key combination.
The key combination displays the menu. You can
- get a list of all objects (running to many pages - note that you can only scroll forwards, not backwards),
- jump to the orbital station or
- jump to an object on the list.
The jump brings you to 10km of the chosen object.
Jump Planner
If you have bought Jump Planner (another equipment item included in newer versions of this OXP), select a distant system from galactic chart and then press F5. Long range scanner will have an option to Display Target System Info and it will give additional options which are interesting.
Cost: 150,000₢ (purchasable anywhere once you already own long Range Scanner)
Download & Installation
