Scanners

[TacticDragon]

Hum... I think I remember that when my scanners reveal cloaked ships, these ships appear with a "cloak circle" around them. I am pretty sure about this.

Another question about scanners, cloaking (armor or device), and storms/nebulae: what happens if I have a cloaked ship (say level EM 2), hidden in a nebula, and an enemy ship with a scanner that defeats level EM 2 is in the same sector? Can it see my cloaked ship, or is the nebula adding 'another layer of cloaking'? If so, how much does it add?

I believe that everything inside a nebula is cloaked with the obscuring level of the nebula, 5 if unmodded.

Nebula's cloak everything inside them, but the actual level of cloak varies.

Okay, but are cloaks and "nebula hiding" cumulative?
