With structural scanner equipped destabilized volatile machines pulsate satisfying red, which is a promise of a nice boom. Just watch that adjacent grunt trembling at what is to come. How about giving them the same kind of visible timer interactive machines get? Right now I need to view it to see this information.

Yep I'll look into adding that. Countdown timers were added to those other machines long after Structural Scanner detection was added, which I didn't go back to update.

Structural Scanners also seem underused, hence the lack of further attention :P

Structural scanners are something I was looking for during my last run, when enemies are crawling in every hallway (especially in Access level). I hate traps, and I like to search for hidden doors easily. Sometimes, I thought I'm safe until those grunts suddenly bust in from the other side of the wall.

Structural Scanners are pretty easy to take from Engineers.
