Summary0001705: Full System Scan Exploitable with Sensor Switching
DescriptionI beleave I have found a bug thatallows players to obtain a complete 100% system scan by only visiting the primary star or a planet. This is achievable by exploiting a timing issue with the short-range and medium-range scanners.
Steps To Reproduce1- Fly to any object within the system.
2- Initiate a short-range scan on the object.
3- Before the short-range scan completes, quickly switch to medium-range sensors and select another object in the system.
4- Once the short-range scan finishes, it unlocks all level 3 data for the object highlighted in the medium-range scanner, not the object initially scanned.
Repeat steps 1-4 to scan all objects in the system without leaving the primary star's vicinity.
Additional InformationExpected Behavior:
The short-range scan should only reveal data for the object it is actively targeting.

Actual Behavior:
The short-range scan unlocks data for the object selected in the medium-range scanner if the selection is changed while the short-range scan is in progress.


To add to this I used the same trick for long range sensors and was able to get a LV.3 Scan on a planet 49.99LY away from my location
