Description
Currently, the only method of interacting with anomalies is through scan probes.
These are used by equiping the launcher, launching them in space, then "triangulating anomaly locations" by successive scans/repositionings.
- The interface involves moving probes in XYZ space using standard 3d modeling controls, then telling them to warp to that location, selecting a scan range and then hitting "scan", followed by scan results.
- Most of the complexity involves selecting the various parameters through the graphical interface. The actual commands are more likely to be :WarpTo(X,Y,Z) and Scan(scanRange) for each probe, and "return to bay" for all probes. I'm not sure how the results are represented, though.
