Vel Kyri	Posted - 2003.07.11 19:03:00 - [1] beautiful idea - i was just talking about this with corp mates today! make the power-up/down period fairly long - say 10 seconds minimum. (and get a skill which can reduce this time) but while you are powered down, you are not visable as scanners (ie, don't show up as a box, on screen on or scanner). you also are removed from chats (radio silence anyone???) and basically only action you can do is power up... but you can hide pretty easily- it can be difficult to find a ship nestled quietly in the middle of a couple of big asteroids, or 50km awat from a gatem etc etc but of course, if you are seen, you cannot tell if the enemy is locking onto you :) so its a risk you will take. -----

Vel Kyri	Posted - 2004.01.19 13:44:00 - [3] needs another bump :) but keep it simpler, and more likely to be put in. simplest form of this is that powerdown == cap/shields go to 0, no targetting, no hud or chat info etc. and no thrust. when powered down, your ship appears as debris and has no brackets. if the enemy sees you they can target you (and you dont get info about this) when you powerup, cap recharges from =, same with shield... its not quite stealth, and allows for more combat in fields etc. which is sorely needed rather than gate camping. -----
