I would like to have more than one geoscanner on my artifacting bot.
I'm not sure if there is a good reason for only one geoscanner aloud on a bot at a time, But it would be nice to have 3 with dif charges so I don't have to change them so often I'm sure it would be handy for finding ore's as well.
Yes, I don't understand one per bot rule for geoscanners.
Hmm, good question on the geoscanner being a unique equipped item like lwf.

you know what.... i know it 
long long time ago, there have been geoscanning missions, that asked you to succesfully scan a mineral several times. so to finish the mission fast, you have just equipped as many geoscanners as scans required and activated them all at once.
same reason why chassis and cargo scanners are unique modules - due to missions.
The "recon" mission got fixed later by disabling scanning the same npcs multiple times counting towards the mission goal, but the modules stayed as they are now.
a second reason for the restriction, that still exists, is to increase the value of T4 geoscanners aside of their accuracy due to their faster cycletime. A termis or argano can reach 100% without a T4.
history lesson - dismissed.

Glad to see you smile about something. Bummer it is on something that is lame.

Assignments should never be used to determine that an item needs to be unique. If so then there is a problem with the design of the assignment not the item.
How about 1 charge for everything

its funny, since probably 50% of the anoying game changes are done because of exploitable mission design, which is sadly the only form of "PvE" the Devs have thought of.
you could say the same about changes that have been done due to PvP and/or griefing that had more effect on pve then what they had been intended to.

This actually came up internally recently, and it would be possible to do.
