If we allow Science to scan a nebula before Helm takes the ship in it could add another layer to scenarios. Based on the position of the ship the nebula could be made to appear to drain energy, add energy, disable systems, damage systems, play jazz music etc.\r\n\r\nOne thing to consider is that currently ships within a nebula can be selected and scanned, so if the \"hitbox\" for selection by science is the full size of the nebula then that could be lost. Not sure how hard it would be to check \"Can the player see a ship at those co-ordinates?\" and if False select the nebula instead.\r\n\r\nSo this request could potentially have a couple of layers to it.\r\n**MVP**\r\n- As Scenario Writer I want to be able to use setDescription for any given nebula so the Science Officer can see why weird effects are occurring in my scenarios.\r\n\r\n\r\n**Nice To Have**\r\n- As Science Officer I want to be able to scan a nebula and have some kind of description returned so I can feel I helped the Captain can make informed choices.\r\n- As Scenario Writer I want to be able to use setScanningParameters for any given nebula so I can make it easier or harder to scan as plot demands.\r\n- As a Scenario Writer I want any nebula which doesn't have an explicit description via setDescription to have a default description (ideally one of a few) which equates to \"It's a normal nebula.\" so I don't have to manually include it for every nebula on the map."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/daid/EmptyEpsilon/issues/comments/170037554","html_url":"https://github.com/daid/EmptyEpsilon/issues/83#issuecomment-170037554","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/daid/EmptyEpsilon/issues/83","id":170037554,"user":{"login":"nallath","id":3922611,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/3922611?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/nallath","html_url":"https://github.com/nallath","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nallath/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nallath/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nallath/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nallath/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nallath/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nallath/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nallath/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nallath/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nallath/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-01-08T15:52:56Z","updated_at":"2016-01-08T15:52:56Z","body":"Well, currently the nebulas already have a harmfull effect; you can't scan through em (or atleast, your long range stuff doesn't work) "}}
