Re: Making Cloaked Warp Points, Stealth Armor
That's a good idea! Pirate/raider bases! 
A bit off-topic here, I guess, but I've hoped for the ability to add aggresive facilities to the game. Like Macross' Grand Cannon, if you know what I mean. They've have a big, big bang but would take the place of another facility and couldn't be moved to another planet.

Re: Making Cloaked Warp Points, Stealth Armor
I think a Planetary Cloaking Facility would also be pretty cool. I haven't messed with cloaking tech any since I have yet to advance far enough to get it. ;P I play games with High Tech cost, so I don't get advancements quickly.

Re: Making Cloaked Warp Points, Stealth Armor
Psitticine I have made Weapons like the Macross/Robotech Grand Cannons (I even call them that), but there are three issues with it:
1) Facilities cannot hold guns... (I've tried if someone else has gotten such a thing to work tell me how)
2) Facilities cannot be customized in any way (so no real options jsut soem generic Grand Cannon X)
3) Weapon Platforms were my solution to #1 & 2, but even 4000 kt WP's can be moved with enough cargo space.... (Btw grand cannon size mounts have a huge bonus to dmg., but weigh over 10x normal which fits)...
Oops Forgot to mention I've tried to make planet cloak facilities, but so far I've been unable to tell if they work or not...

Re: Making Cloaked Warp Points, Stealth Armor
To test your planetary cloaking facility,
start a game with two human players. Go
back and forth between them.

Re: Making Cloaked Warp Points, Stealth Armor
that is btw how I always play, but I haven't managed to force my way through the overzealous AI hordes (my altered spaceyards make them a tad more viscous than normal...

Re: Making Cloaked Warp Points, Stealth Armor
Um, if you really wanted to test planetary
cloaking, you might just generate a couple
of human players only. You could even tweak
the Settings.txt file so that the number of
systems is so low you couldn't help but be
closely situated. If the cloaking technology
takes awhile to get to, tweak your culture
to have a 1600% research bonus or something.
