Improved Scouts

Description
Scouts serve no purpose beyond being a starting ship. They are out classed in every way except for the Pegasus because of its speed. This mod aims to fix that by giving all scouts a 50% boot to their radar range. Hopefully making them a useful part of any fleet. Both the first two DLC scout ships are also effected.

# Compatibility

Works with These Other Mods That Adds Scouts. They are listed as optional dependencies for compatibility.

Now also works with the first two DLC's scouts

Boron have 2 scout ships. One is a "military" version. Unusual.

Weird I added the patch for it. Will just later today to see if there is some type of issue.

The boron scout "irukandji" isn't affected by this mod apparently. It may not be being treated like a scout because it requires military license to purchase.

If you don't mind, could you please add a 100km scout version too ? ;_; M5 seem still not useful enough for me ^^'

Thank you in advance if you consider doing that :)

Thank you very much. This is a simple straight forward mod that should be in the base game. I mean you make scouts worth it. Your 50% range increase is great. It also does not mess with other things. If you want a tiny variety, make 1 or 2 scouts with the less combatant species, 75%.

Need to add the boron scouts. This mod should work with 6.0 as is, just with the Boron scouts not having their range increased.
