Description

Windows 10
KSP 1.2 64-bit
Tested in Stock, and Modded installs.

The Surface Scanner doesn't show the resources of any asteroid a vessel is attached to. For unmodded installations, this may only be Ore, but for modded installations this could include a number of resources. The asteroid itself only shows the mass of the asteroid and mass of the resources, but no detailed information.

The resources can still be mined with drills, but as the composition is unknown so it becomes impossible to determine which tanks are needed, and (for some mods) what drills to best use.

Sorry Kielm, but the surface scanner is for planetary surfaces, it doesn't do what you think on asteroids.
