ME1 - planet scanning status

[Grandmaster of Pwn]

Hi guys, is there a way to tell which systems you have already completely scanned? i think in ME2 there was like a percentage indicator. but what about ME1? do i just have to remember what areas i've already visited?
thanks for any comments

Dunno if there is a percentage counter, so I write em down after completing them.
Hope that helps in some way.

ME1 doesn't have an indicator for which planets you have already checked (unless someone made a mod). Luckily ME2 and 3 do show you a percentage, but make sure to check back every now and then to make sure you dont miss a side quest that might unlock after scanning or doing missions in other systems.

What’s going on when you thoroughly scan a system and you still only get like 80%?

It means you didn't fully scan a system. The percentage is based on what can be found, so even if a system has a station or some other thing you can visit later, it won't matter. If it says <100%, it means you missed something

There isn't in ME1, but someone made this handy Steam guide that I've used as a checklist.

You missed something, several systems have stuff in space, not just planets.
