' Wrote:Idea:
Make nebulae effective. This could be done by seriously hampering with the sensors. Right now, fleeing from someone is pretty much impossible. If one is in a system and cruises away, the pursuer can select the target and follow. Or, if there is a lane, it's the obvious way to go.
So, how about we make nebulae really mess up sensors? I thought of... 5k sensor-detection-range instead of 15k. The halved scanning-range really is horse****, since no one really cares.
That way, fleeing into a nebula would be a smart move and you could actually outrun who ever it is who is following you!
There are some nebulae that already have just 5k range as far as I remember. They are few, but they are there.
Not every cloud has to be a scanner hazard like the Texas Negras;)
But I support your idea! Maybe not static 5k but preferably random from 10-5k.
