so, people have been complaining about cloaked ships for a little bit and I've read some of the posts about them, heres an idea, I'm not saying this is a fix, more of just and off the wall idea...
How about a device that fits just like the cloak but instead of making you invisible it just mimics a pretargeted object (asteroids, ship wrecks, large secure containers, etc etc)
For instance, you could be hiding in whatever ship it is you own inside a roid belt... The mimic field would have to look slightly different from the real object your mimicking.. so if you were in a roid field and your ship is disguised as an asteroid it would look just like any other from a distance but if they were to hit the "look at" button and actually zoom in they might be able to tell the difference.
Could make it so that a ship thats trying to hide has to mimic something larger/close to its own mass... so a battle ship couldn't look like a jet can... This would stop people from just sitting at safe spots because they wouldn't have anything to hide them... Maybe be able to mimic a ship? so your out in lowsec with a bud who's flying a retriever and your in an HAC or something but to the ******* that just jumped in you look just like another helpless miner...
one of the biggest problems i see with the idea right now is that it would limit the places people could hide dramatically... not to mention it would be a ***** to use a stealth bomber if you had to hide someplace like a roid belt all the time...
like i said, its an idea... constructive criticism would be appreciated.

so you'd negate the reason why probes and onboard scanners exist?
remember to make these (well probes, d-scan alwasy worked if in range) work better is the exact reason unprobable was nerfed.

I would mimic the entire gang as jump gates and leave the enemy to figure out which one is real. While calling in reinforcements. ---
