[Beta 14] Terrain Scanner "updates" active Repair Station
« on: September 14, 2024, 06:56:02 AM »

While a Repair Station was repairing one of my parts, i went into a nearby room (out of sight of the Repair Station) to avoid patrols.
While waiting for my part to be repaired, i noticed that my terrain scanner was repeatedly "updating" the Repair Station's non-interactive tiles, as if they had changed since i'd last seen them.

I'm guessing this is related to the fact that Repair Stations' non-interactive tiles have a real-time animation when something is being repaired?

Yes it glows while active, so this is normal because a Terrain Scanner works by showing you exactly what the tile looks like at the time (not just the contents--it needs to know the appearance and it will not use some sort of "generic" appearance because that's not how map memory works).
