I originally posted this in a topic but i felt it merited its own topic. If you would like to see the original topic you can go here: http://starmadedock.net/threads/cloaking-should-be-changed.19966/
I think that cloaking/jamming power costs should start low and exponentially cost more the more blocks your ship has. I don't feel large capital ships should be able to realistically cloak/jam. The total block count needs to include any docked entities/turrets.
My suggestion:
- Cloak/jammer power cost should start low and exponentially grow based on you ships block count including all docked entities/turrets, potential calculation: ( Blocks * Blocks ) * 0.0001
Reasoning:
- This would give a really cool advantage for small ships and finally give some balance to a already large ship dominated game.
Examples:
10 block ship: .01 e/sec
100 block ship: 1 e/sec
1000 block ship: 100 e/sec
10000 block ship: 10000 e/sec
100000 block ship: 1000000 e/sec
1000000 block ship: 100000000 e/sec
Summary: This idea is to make it easier for small ships to cloak/jam and harder the larger your ship is to do such.
