Asteroid Info Script

[Nessalc]

I'm trying to make a script that would allow one to send a ship (equipped with a mineral scanner) to each asteroid in a system and record its mineral content to your navigation computer. However, I've noted that, unless you're in the ship, it won't record such information! Is there something I'm missing?

I don't know for sure. It seems the mineral scanner only works on the [PLAYERSHIP].

There was a similar script from XaiTec (can't remember the name). This script used a different solution: using the 'find asteroid' instruction in a loop, with the yield value starting at 1. The yield value was increased in every loop, until an asteroid was found. This information was stored on a satellite placed near the asteroid.
