Stelar Sonar PING

Module that emits an electromagnetic pulse that is so strong that decloaks all ships in the system and prevents activation of any cloaking modules during the activiation time. ( and by any i mean Friendly, Neutrals and Hostiles).

Idea for a new module : mid slot module ; "defense screen".
The module use a lot of cap, and have a significant cooldown, or not, I don't really know. When activated, the module makes a super shield which absorb damage proportionaly to the damages done : the more dps you receive, the more the module absorb.

Exemple : you get targeted by a whole fleet ; you activate the defense screen which operate for, say, 20s. During these 20 seconds, incoming damage are reduced proportionaly to the damages received. So the whole ennemy fleet is firing at you, so the screen absorb the most part (let's say 75%) ; as people see they are not hurting you, some stop firing, so the screen absorb less, and you take more damage, until it colapse.

To determine the absorbed damage, you can use the ship shield hp : each % of your shield damage you take (before resists), the module absorb one more % (or better, use a square function), but the percentage decrease each second, so the module is really the most effective when you take heavy sustained damages.

1. - Would like to be able to change ECM Modules while in space,
Just like ships can change their ammo.
ECM boats become un-useful very quickly while in a fleet.

Dont think its fair that ships can change their ammo when ever they want, but ECM boats can not change their ecm's.
If a fleet comes up against different fleet types, they have no problems because all they have to do is change their ammo.
but then ecm boats become useless on each new gang they come across, because ecm modules can not be change like ships can change ammo while in space.

Maybe implement a 60 day skill called - "ECM Specialist", that lets you change the ecm module on the fly while in space.
Also set a limitation on the ecm boat, that if a ecm boat has ecm modules fitted to it, the pilot can not change ammo on the High Slots, but only on the mid slots for ecm modules.
