Decloaker

[Deleted member 392097]

It would be really useful if there was some sort of "Decloaker" which would allow for you to be able to send out a sudden impulse from your ship which would only last a few seconds but would decloak any cloaked ships in the area. And not allow them to recloak for a certain amount of time. Or it would at least make them show up on radar.

actually if you are in the same sector as a radarjammed ship it will be unjammed if someone conducts a scan. so it's sort of what you want.

As far as I'm aware, scanners take out jamming and cloaking, but you can put them back instantly. I guess it's scanner+high alpha swarmers for me.

This is why cloak and jam need a cooldown/startup time without instant activation.

Bug. Power system not updating correctly. If you run it to the limit then you'll break cloak on lag.

Edit: At least how about cooldown only when hit by scanner? That should make everyone happy.

Trying to a decent size ship to be able to cloak is hard enough as it is. Are people really having a tough time with cloaked ships? Maybe I'm doing something wrong.

I think that cloaking (in its current form) is so useless that noone really uses it because of the power usage. I don't think any machines need to be added to decloak someone when noone cloaks anyway.
