New scanners and docking during battle [summoning admin(s) to clear this up?]

[razorviper]

Even after the changes introduced in scanner functionality, the local chat should be left as it was before. The scanners fall into the category of Radars which are a part of navigational systems but voice comms are carried out by Radio transmitters and receivers which is why they shouldn't interfere with each other.
Also a radar should be able to notice when a ship disappears suddenly near a base within it's scanner range. Therefore the docking notifications should vary according to the type of scanner being used.
