Planetary Cloaking Device

[DarkAngel]

some of you may remember me posting a working planetary cloaking device which cloaked an entire planet,however it had the problem of having to save/reload the game for the cloak icon to appear.it works perfectly except for that little nuisance,however i still can't figure out why it does that.i figured since i have gold Version i'd try it again and unfortunatly it does the exact same thing.it works,but you have to save/reload after it is built.i am posting it here again,perhaps someone can tell me what is the problem with it....

bumping this up so perhaps someone will actually look at it

And it all it needs is for the player to reload a savegame in order to work properly?

I'd send it to Aaron directly; it sounds like it should be very easy to fix.

Version 1.85:
10. Fixed - Planets would not recalculate their sight values when a new facility was built (this would make planets with cloaking abilities not light up cloak button).

[Fyron]

Yes, but do the planets actually get cloaked in 1.85, or does it just look pretty with the button activated?

i dunno about planet cloaking, but sector cloaking (like the storm) certainly works on both components and facilities. if planet cloaking works too, thats even better.
