Fenris	Posted - 2003.07.09 22:02:00 - [1] Great idea, well put. :) It would be cool if each module had an energy signature, and could be manually deactivated, at the cost of a few seconds to power back up. Your ships energy signature would be a culmination of what modules you had activated plus the energy produced by the ships engine and power core. The ships ability to be detected and show up on radar could then be modified by different degrees depending on how ready for action you want to be. Of course this could be modified by skills also, say a "silent running" skill, or a "quick power up" skill. :) ------------------------------ "Burn the land and boil the sea, you cant take the sky from me" Fenris.

Fenris	Posted - 2003.07.11 14:08:00 - [3] Good point about the local chat problem. There really needs to be some way to take yourself off local chat for this to work effectively. But I dont think there is any need to cloak, or change your ships appearance. Ships, especially frigates are very small compared to most asteroids. If you park up close to a roid, go to silent running, and stay still, it would be very difficult to spot you. Only a paranoid or extremely careful pilot would visually scan the whole field from different angles. In which case their caution should be rewarded. Most of us wouldn't bother checking every roid field we enter. And hidden ships would be rare anyway. ------------------------------ "Burn the land and boil the sea, you cant take the sky from me" Fenris.
