Double scanning planets?

I am out exploring for the Sirius CG. Since 1.3 I seem to be getting a lot of 'double scans', where the scan starts, finishes, then starts again before giving me the data. Is this normal behaviour or should I bug it?

Those are server issues. Either a server side bug or just high load. I had that also a lot yesterday evening. Not so much later at night when Europe went to bed.
Ticket it as I am sure it is not intended.

There were problems with this since 1.2, I'm under the impression that it is to do with connecting to the database. The servers have been struggling since the release of 1.3 so things are iffy when a lot of users are online. Not sure if we are due some sort of server-side patch.

I'll whack it up as a bug. I'll have to explain it as a 'random malfunction' in my characters blog :D

Indeed it is. And sometimes you have to do the system scan twice too.

Have noticed this for a while now but much worse lately. Real drag when your out exploring on limited play time :(

I had this happen to me a few times when I went out to the Pleiades a few days ago. It seemed like lag to me because I was also stalling a bit when I jumped into a new system, like it took 5-10 seconds for any scanner to work
