Re: Custom scanning groups

Separate input boxes for X, Y and Z coords, and a dedicated line for each scan, that's pretty verbose, and the limit of "one scan per set of coords" makes for a lot of unnecessary clicking. An input box that allows you to enter any number of coords (for example "1:2:3 4 5 6 7.8.9" or "3:4:*", support any non-alphanumerical delimited separating X, Y and Z), along with 8 checkboxes that allow you to select the scan types (plural) you wish to do. This would also remove the need for custom galaxy or alliance scanning interfaces.

[Edit] I'm far too nice for this world: https://i.imgur.com/Qo9XZSe.png
We'll try and have some sort of advanced interface to do something like this in the next round or two
