Well, at least I'll know to cloak all my population transports in Horrible Doom... those things are vital since your colonies start out so underpopulated while your homeworld is just bursting at the seams with colonists... maybe in SE5 there could be unrest if your worlds become overpopulated???

Well, your ships will be seen by everybody unless you at minimum, put some scattering armor or a cloaking device on, to block the default level 1 active scans.

Is it active or passive scanning you get by default?

Unmodded stealth armor blocks both active and passive... Odd.

I was sure it was active.

In any event you'll need to research the armor tech to block it.

It' always been that way in unmodded AFAIK. Everything but mines gets passive and active scanning at level 1 by default, so otherwise, stealth armor would never work.

New Question, I just found Robe Goldberg Technology on a planet's ruins. I; unfortunatly, see nothing that this technology offers me nor is there new technology to research as a result.

Is there something I am missing?
