During a corp-op we tried finding a Navy Raven which was safespotted in a system.
The system had a slight slope downwars and scanprobes need almost exact "on plane" range to work.
So I was warping back and forth with my covert-op alt and my main to find him.
Took a bit too long and the navy-raven docked up.
Our gang went back toward our HQ when we encountered a normal raven sitting at a safespot. Sadly this system was also sloping downwards from point to point.
But having practised a little I soon came close enough to use my probes. Once we warped in the raven-pilot said on local:
> omg lol
> busted
Indeed he was. We offered a ransom which he denied, so we destroyed him.
Sadly the loot was pretty bad.
I'll be happy once CCP fixes scanprobes and make them TRUE 3D scan.
This way I wont have to warp around to get on plane.
