The '''Scanner''' is a [[Tools|tool]] officially being implemented into the game in the H2.0 update. It is used to scan [[Fragments|fragments]], in order to create [[Blueprints|blueprints]], life forms and geological structrures of the planet. To acquire the blueprints of a particular object, the player needs to analyse the fragments for that object multiple times. The amount of times scanning is required varies based on the object. Each scan of one fragment takes approximately ten seconds.
