Re: Scanners and Jammers
Well there's a difference between sensors and scanners.
There's basic sensors which show the surrounding area. They're not specialised and their strength goes up slowly. They focus on range.
Then you get sensors that focus on strength but have slightly less range. If the enemy has cloaking devices, hides in a storm or asteroid field they are concealed to a certain level. basic sensors aren't made to see them, although a level 1 cloak might be visible to level 10 basic sensors. You need advanced sensors to detect cloaked ships. There are just different paths. Depending on what path you follow, temporal, psychic, etc, you use different technology. I'm not sure but possibly psychic sensors might be slightly more efficient.
Long range scanners are supposed to allow you to see what a ship is made along with what cargo they carry
Jammers stop that sort of thing.
