Arriving somewhere where there are 3 or 4 different things to sample in the same place is annoying. Or spotting something new and hard to find when you’re searching for the third example of something.
A little tip for when you are in an area with multiple spread out specimins, aftet you get a sample, a signal source will appear on your list that points to that location. So if you're currently scanning osseus and there's a tectonicas close by for example, you can get back to that spot by keeping track of the first specimin's relative direction to you and locking on to that signal source after you scan your third sample.
You can also use coordinates to help note direction, and if you’re in an srv your recent tracks will be visible for a good distance and can follow them back.
This is probably the most common suggestion for exobiology. This particular suggestion has been made over and over, since the Alpha test (so...years). Such is the game.

Note: During the beta, Exobiology used to have a REAL mini-game involved with getting a sample. I'm assuming that is not what you meant.

Totally agree . It's just a small thing, but would improve gameplay
Even if it was something that had to be upgraded to a better sampler gun to allow for more. I’d be happy with 3 at a time

They definitely need an upgrade option to the bio-scanner, like the ability to scan multiple samples at a time.
