Cloaking Device, Re-looked at. - weylin - 08-12-2008 I thought it could only be done with mission triggers or somthing It ususally cutscenes when they uncloaked anyways :/ could any developers explain how it works? Cloaking Device, Re-looked at. - Turkish - 08-12-2008 Well, using applications like FLAC you can create a state of cloaking. But its somewhat resource draining, it works in a similar fashion to FLHook but with more control over some features and abilities.

Now it's timered on every ship. *Sigh.* Used to love four-torping with the Marauder after just coming out of cloak.

Cloaking Device, Re-looked at. - Drake - 08-13-2008 A looong while back there was a (unofficial) discussion about adding an item which would make the ship invisible to sensors (but fully visible otherwise, and the target could still be selected if you clicked on the ship manually), and which used the same equipment slot as the armor upgrade. Therefor, useful for things like smuggling ships and scouts, but not for anyone who expected much combat. Cloaking Device, Re-looked at. - weylin - 08-13-2008 sensor jammer would be cool...

Only fighters may use it cause the battleship can be targeted easily and having 4 time their original hull is better than this device. But look at the mini razor on someone who do not have any armor upgrade. It will kill him instantly. So here, you have the choice between stealth on scans and resist to a razor/sunslayer. Cloaking Device, Re-looked at. - Linkus - 08-13-2008 Can you imagine 6 bombers appearing next to your nice capital fleet out of nowhere? They would rape them. Infact, any ship with that sensor jammer would be pretty much impossible to see coming till it's too late. Since nearly all ships would use it..lots of issues. You can't limit it to only fighters and not bombers. Especially if its using the armour upgrade, gunboats could use it then:rolleyes: |
