Need help with BIOSCANNER.
this is my 2 playthrough , in the 1 one everything was ok. But this one is not. When i press the wheel to scan things, they must be green, right? Well, they are not in my case. Also for some reason Mr. Robot doesn't discover new species. I still can scan blindly, but there is no point in that. I don't get any info about new species or discovered ones. Database is empty and the 3 research branch can not be researched. And modules aren't dropping any more. Did i break the game somehow?

Complete story objectives and it end up working fine.

The bio scanner gets unlocked before the highlight feature is. It's pretty confusing the second time around and feels like a bug, but that's just how the campaign works.

yea, especially since i'm able to scan things and it does track the number of scans (displayed at the bottom right), but still nothing shows up in the database - have build the lab (hq lvl 3), researched alien technology 2 and some other things, still nothing shows up - this is very weird behavior tbh!

but okay, i try building the planetary scanner and look how it goes - thx for the info, was the second place i found it (and the first sadly wasn't the wiki! xP)
