Re: Disappearing Ship Question

What had happend is that these ships have been cloaked by the player on that turn, being retrofitted to cloakable the turn before. It seems that though cloaking happens immediately when giving orders, in reality it happens (sometimes? always?) after moving.

If that is it, then it's a flaw. I mean, if a ship shows cloaked at the beginning of the turn, it should remain cloaked throughout the turn.
