You can save the location of (and thus warp to) combat or core scanner probes by right-clicking them, and you can manipulate their locations on grids.
- open Probe Scanner and Click "Launch Pinpoint Formation"
- set formation to its smallest size
- click "Center current formation on your ship" button in Probe Scanner window
- with focus on Solar System Map window: hold Control and furiously spin your scroll wheel down for ~20 rotations
- this further shrinks the formation's size. you can alternatively hold Control and manually drag the probes' arrows inward, but that's fiddly
- click ANALYZE. now at least one probe remains on-grid (in "Pinpoint" formation, one probe is at the exact center of the eight)
- if the other seven probes don't show up elsewhere on-grid, repeat the process of Control-scrolling down in the SSMw and ANALYZing until they do
- if other probes do show up but they're all clustered close together instead of 1 above, 1 below and 5 horizontally, you've shrunk too much
- so you must increase instead of shrinking formation size until they're still on-grid but are usefully spaced
- once they're on grid and in a uniform configuration, keep scrolling (up or down) in small or single wheel-tick increments and re-ANALYZing to get useful formations
- save useful formations for future re-use (there's a "Save Current Formation" button)
Remember: other people can save your probes' locations, too!
This makes having a Core Probe Launcher in a utility high slot even more useful (and don't forget sixteen core probes in cargo).
