' Wrote:are you sure about J/D mk2 that it "eats" 900 cargo space?
it's strange that J/D for BCs and BSs eats same amount of cargo space....

Completely sure, unless the server uses different config files.
Case in point:

You are most welcome, hopefully, you found this info interesting, check back the front page, just added jump tests using MK1 and MK2 surveyors (Using Jump Drive II, 3 runs each)

No, NPCs can't and don't see you, if you are cloaked.

Answer added to Q&A section, Garuda. Thank you for your help.

*EDIT*
Pardon, Nosferath, will correct.

Also, found some how long it takes for the cloak effect to kick in after /cloak.

Another Question.

When you are cloaked and the enemy fires a Cruisedisruptor can it target you? Meaning while you are Cloaked can the enemy just fire Missles and then see where they go and then know your location?

No, it can't target you, but it can hit you (like any other weapon, as you're still solid), the same way you can accidentally hit NPC's even when you don't aim at them.
Also, blindly firing can be used to know your location.

*pictures omitted*

Am I a noob for not knowing the cargo bay showed that tooltip?

I've played Freelancer for ~6 years and never knew that.

All good information, should be added to the main guide.

Thanks.
