Disappearing Ship Question
In a game I am playing, I replayed the movement log in a system and watched a ship move to a planet and then disappear. At turn's end, the ship doesn't show up but it did during the movement log. The planet it moved to has no ability to "hide" the ship. The planet already had a colony on it, so it didn't colonize it. And you must turn on cloaking/stealth before it moves (it can't go on afterwards).
Can anyone explain this?

Re: Disappearing Ship Question
Scrapped? Destroyed by an intel project or lack of resources?

Very unlikely destroyed by lack of resources (it's near the beginning of the game and we have more than we can use) and, as far as I know, you can't move to a location and then scrap on the same turn (can you?). And if I had done some intel on it, I would know .

Re: Disappearing Ship Question
Maybe there already was a cloacked ship/fleet over the planet.
Probably a big fleet, a very big fleet

Very funny
But we know "fleets" don't cloak nor does a ship arriving at a fleet that is composed of ships that are completely cloaked, cloaks.
If it's some trick I don't know, I'd like to find out how it's done. If it's a game flaw, I'd like to report it.

Re: Disappearing Ship Question
Perhaps it was the teleportation event.
