Description:
Background
Walkthrough
Scan the Navigation, Weapons, Sensors and Communication subsystems of the recently encountered Shivan Juggernaut (SJ Sathanas). Press S to cycle throught the subsystems. The guys at Volition did everything to place the subsystems of this ship to desperate places, try to keep your reticle (aiming crosshair) in the middle of the subsystem. The juggernaut is moving, making your day harder.
If a scanning procedure starts, press brake and try to slow down as much as you can. This one needs experience in scanning, you have to know the subsystem handling system of Freespace well. The average scan time is 5 seconds, and the scanning procedure starts when you are at most 150 meters of the subsystem. If you the subsystem runs out of your reticle, try to begin the braking sooner, before you get within 150 meters. It helps because the subsystem remains in your reticle further if you are moving slower.
