Botanist

Botanist is a core plugin for Observatory, designed to provide simple output for biological signals.

Note: There is an optional plugin, BioInsights, that expands upon the capabilities of Botanist.

Installation

  • Botanist comes pre-installed with Observatory Core by default.
  • If manual installation is required, create a 'plugins' folder in the same location as Observatory's executable. Add ObservatoryBotanist.dll to this folder.
  • When starting Observatory, if successful, there should be a Botanist tab along the top.

Botanist divides its output into subsections:

  • Body: The name of the body on which the biological was found.
  • Bio Total: The total amount of biological signals on a given body.
  • Species: The type of biological signal scanned. Only scanned species will show up.
    • If no samples for a given a planet are taken then (NO SAMPLES TAKEN) will be displayed instead.
  • Analysed: Displays whether the signal has been analysed or not.
  • Colony Distance: Displays the clonal colony range of the signal as per the Codex.
