' Wrote:I suppose the "long range scanner" is not out of roleplay too, right? I know the location of every ship in sirius (exept special systems). I can identify ships that are in my system on the long range scanner, as soon as they enter the system. I can send a message to every ship I see on my long range scanner (exept ships in special systems) without beeing out of character.
This is very OORP. As it makes no sense. If this was true there could never have been a surprise attack in F history, which there has been. If the faction you are playing has enough infrastructure to have sensor satellites then you can RP having some greater knowledge of ships in the system or in any system controlled by that faction, or in some cases, its allies. Be careful though because once a royal said he detected my council ship and was threatening me and what not and i was docked on a base, so of course i said "Funny, I didnt think royal satellites could detect me inside a base..."
