Seems like they finally fixed this one... at least I haven't seen it in some time. Are there still some issues with save/load that I maybe just didn't notice, or have they REALLY nailed it?

I agree with Byram too- I can make alot of hay with the survey ship, or even the Cargo Hull Sensor ships I build. In one game, I ran into a thick of those anomoly, before I knew it, I had a cargo hull with 17 hitpoints. That would have to be the ONLY way to get more than 1 HP on a cargo hull: I've built "raiders" in the early stage of a game befo
While you may not be able to use them to dicover anomolies, survey modules still give you increased sensor range, over and above even Mk. IV sensors. Thus the GGB STILL provides a benefit (although a minor one) in that you can add powerful sensors to all your ships without taking up valuable space that could be used for more weapons or defensive systems. Of course, if it's broken, then it's not really any use after all.
It all depends on your reflexes. Good reflexes=better odds.
