Stealth ship things.

[Stefan]

Hey, ships with stealth shouldn't be able to take down big transports... as I said, "VERY Light Fighter" or something...

There's always the chance to get a real experienced pirate against a poor armed trader.

Normally you can pick someone up on scanners at 14k, target at 10k, and scan at a max of 4k. With this device, you wouldnt show up on anyone's scanners until you're within 1-2k range.

As I was saying. But I do believe 1~2k range is too close. Stealth should be used for crossing enemy territory, and when you do that you will never get THAT close to another ship if you don't want to be seen. And let's remember that most nebula's and belt's affect scanner's proficiency also, so add interference to a 1~2k range and bam, you ARE invisible. Not exactly balanced.

The best approach would be reducing the detecting range to about 6k, targetting goes down to about 4k and cargo scanning stays the same. Other than that only light fighters should be able to use it, since anything bigger than that could pretty much abuse the fact that it would help smuggling a LOT.
