Step one: Create two new items.

A) Spyglass scanner
B) Order Recon Cruiser scanner

Step two: Set both their scan range to 100k for detecting player ships.

Step three: Make them only mountable by spyglass and ORCs

Step four: Q_Q

:cool:

And the Nomads can have their suncrusher torp from the extended intro.:yahoo:

Good idea!! - And while we are at it: create a longrange, fastfiring transporter gun - with virtually no energyuse - only mountable by the IMG on Hegemons, so they can bombard Cali Base from Java station.

EDIT: Off course it should do no damage - it should have the name FRUSTRATION

Yea....right,
You forgot to add a third item....

C) LSF X-treme Scanner > which should have a better scan range than both, up to 110k for detecting Spyglasses and Order recon cruisers.

Step 6 Q_Q more due to my post.

+1

In that case... Nomads should detect all ships in the system due to telepathy.

Or you can just use the player list sorted by system. So you do not spam your scan-list in high populated systems like New York or Dublin.

I could live with it if the range would be 15-20k ... sounds more reasonable and not overpowered, eh?

Without any hacks, detecting player ships at the >10K range (2.5 for NPCs, 15 for other players, 10 for a selectable moving object) is not possible. Potentially nice idea to give the Discovery scanner some use again. But no.

Nice idea:cool:

100k scann...not worth,why?
15-20k ye :)
