Just for the beta testers... there's no public patch out yet past 1.84. But there should be in about a month... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

which brings to mind what if your walking on the planet... is it an atmosphere level cloak so that anyone inside the atmosphere is still visible and if so wouldnt a close flight reveal the truth?

Yeah, sure. I guess by the time you see the planet, your ship would have crashed into it already http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Now there's an idea... sectors with cloaked planets ought to have a chance of ships being randomly destroyed each turn, but when one does, population/cargo/facilities on the planet will be destroyed! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif

Re: Planetary Cloaking Device

Yes, it will...

The Last few beta patches have fixed all (most?) of the bugs associated with planetary cloaking.

Re: Planetary Cloaking Device

Fighter cloaking would be interesting.

Planet cloaking is a good idea - but id like to also see detection devices able to be put onto ships also.
