FTL Scout Probe 2.3

Currently Beta/WIP - Ancient Relics Edition; 2.3+ compatible

Adds FTL-capable scout probes, buildable from game start. Simply go into the ship designer and design a probe. They're simple reconaissance and information-gathering devices that can be attached to fleets or deployed independently in order to seek out new life and identify possible worlds for survey.

Probes CAN:
» Use their enhanced sensors to mark adjacent Unexplored systems as Explored.
» Move around quickly between systems. They're even faster than corvettes.
» Be built quickly and (relatively) cheaply from any shipyard.
» Identify alien life and scout potential new worlds for survey and colonization.
» Provide a tiny bit of piracy deterrence. Just a tiny bit though.
» Help gather intelligence on potential threats, so that you can determine the armament preferences and technological level of your (would-be) enemies.

Probes CANNOT/DO NOT:
» Move straight into Unexplored systems. You will need to move them adjacent to Unexplored systems first.
» Directly survey planets or systems. Science ships are still required for this.
» Fight. Like, at all. They're made of tissue paper and don't have particularly good Evasion.
» Enter wormholes that you can't see the other end of. They can scout them and tell you where it goes, but not go through.
» Require Scientists, Admirals, or any other Leaders to function.
» Auto-Explore.
» Be used by the AI, nor can they be made usable by the AI in the first place.

Probes MAY NOT:
» Be compatible with any mods that radically alter the way ships work. I believe they're compatible with NSC2 but I haven't checked in a while (and they're kind of redundant since NSC2 corvettes have a survey sensor option).
