As far as I understood, and was told, in addition to it being my own opinion on the matter. Undercover ships with a spoofed IFF are to be treated as the IFF that's spoofed. Rules wise apparently that only applies to Wild, but what then is even the point of spoofing your ID to begin with as an intelligence operative if someone can just go "lmao nice ID" (Note that I don't play undercover intel IDs), but treated all the undercover KOI/LSF/Order ships I came across as undercover vessels due to their freelancer IFF.
And I seem to recall that there was a staff-post about this issue somewhere, but I cannot seem to locate it and or it doesn't exist.
Unless I'm just absolutely blind, the rules only specify you can't go "lmao nice ID" to Wild vessels with spoofed IFF.
Whereas you could probably guess pretty easily you're dealing with an undercover intelligence operative or wild if they're using their ID's native tech, such as undercover avenger totally not being a lawful dude, or a wild sporting nomad guns.
So is there just no protection for intel IDs that use the IFF spoof?
