Space scanners

[TheEvilMango]

I've checked the wiki and read pervious post about them. I even have one the works decently and one that detects my incoming rocket. But I still have some questions. Can I have 1 scanner that detects all my rockets when I make more and how do I get them at 100%? Also is it worth getting them to a 100%?

Nope you can set rocket scanners only to one rocket at the time. You can switch between them, but thats nothing convenient. And no, you dont need 100% for rockets. Even 50% gives enough time to open the blast doors..

Build more.  Make sure their view of the sky is not obstructed.

rocket scanners do not need any view

I used a vertical scanner layout for my asteroid detection in my recent game.  This gave me the rest of the map for other stuff.

It's definitely worth getting 100% detection, with less than 100% the chance that a meteor strike is low, but there's always a chance it might be missed and you'll be in for making repairs to your bunker doors.
