Default intelligence and stealth

One thing I've always been unable to figure out : when you complete an intel project and when it fails (I suppose that occurs when the ennemy has more points available in counter intelligence projects than the points spent in the attacks he has to face during the turn ) does the ennemy always known that an attack has occured, and who launched it (whatever the intel project type). Same question if the project succeed (communication taps, sabotage...) ?

It seems to depend on how much intelligence is generated by the victim.

Early on, with few points, I just get a message that intel was blocked or that someone has done something.

Later, with more facilities built, it says who was suspected.

I think it have to do with the level of counter-intelligence proyect being used. My guess is that a level 3 gives you more info than a level 1 or 2.

Look at intelprojects.txt (may be spelled differently). This file tells you who gets Messages and what the Messages contain. CI level is irrelevant.
