Rock & Salvage Scanner
Target: v1
Why This Matters
Mining in Star Citizen means scanning dozens of rocks before finding one worth your time. The in-game scanner shows composition percentages, but doesn't tell you what that's actually worth at current market prices. Players waste charges on rocks that look good but pay poorly.
What You'll Get
- Full composition breakdown with current market value per mineral
- Mine / Skip recommendation based on estimated yield vs. time
- Instability warnings and recommended mining head
- Salvage analysis for derelict hulls — RMC yield, component value, cargo unknowns
How It Works
IL-9 takes the scan data, maps each mineral to current commodity prices, and calculates the estimated yield in aUEC. It factors in rock instability, your mining head, and extraction time to give you a clear mine-or-skip call.
