That's good! Glad it's useful to you.

I haven't bought SS5 yet, but it's a good thing that it at least does have some kind of probe and probe launcher system. That's rather useful for scout ships.

The kicker is it also gives rules for using the probes as improvised missiles in a pinch. This could be handy for a desperate, outgunned scout ship trying to make a run for it.
