Hmmmm...then long range scanners and scanner jammers only have a use prior to combat? Like whether to flee or attempt to engage in combat?
Quote:
In fact, cloaked ships in the same sector as a combat will also be detected. (If no combat occurs, the cloaked ships can slip past unnoticed)

By detected, I assume you mean their components and cargo are shown.

You are right...I didn't realize the "cloaking device" was a real component and thought Fyron was using it in a generic way to refer to a class of cloaking devices.
