Cloaking drones bug?

[narf poit chez BOOM]

maybe it's because drones are supposed to be throw-away and cloaking them is ongoing.

[Q]

Just made a test but in a turn based game: drone cloaking worked without problems and the cloaking was not deactivated after a turn.

But I think you are right that if you want to keep this drone cloaked it should be possible.
Just a stupid question: you don't have any ministers activated?

Sats can not move. I design a drone to have enough solar sails to regenerate supplies while sitting + stealth armor + some engines. And move it to a system I want to observe. At the highest drone level it is possible to include some kind of scanners to see cloaked ships as well.
I think it is much less micromanagment than using sats.

And nope, no ministers.

Yes, turned based works fine. But it does not in multi. I have just ran 2 multiplayer turns on PBW today. The first turn I order a drone to cloak. The next it was automatically decloaked.

Reported this bug to Malfador. I hope they'll fix it in the next patch
