what means passive and active scan?

A passive scan just looks at any incoming signals, like looking at light through a telescope.

An active scan sends out a signal and looks for what bounces back, like radar.

Cap'n Q
My first mod! Hypermaze quadrant
The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the
human mind to correlate all of its contents. We live on a placid
island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was
not meant that we should go far. -- HP Lovecraft, "The Call of Cthulhu"

@capnq: yep - that is it in real life.

But in SE4 it doesnt matter. Or I m wrong?

[Cyrien]

In SE it doesn't matter unless you mod it to matter. And then you could mod it wrong if you wanted.

I did something like that in techmod.. passive sensors are really only good for detecting fighters. EM Actives are better, Gravitics are the best- but also the most expensive.

Something like that I hoped were in the original game.
But when matched in your TechMod - fine.

btw - why did you cancel the test game?

[Phoenix-D]

I didn't actually. When PBW updated it got fried due to inactivity!

Working on beta 5 still. This is a fairly big one. Amoung other things, I've added fighter cloaks, new system types, a few new pictures, intelligence (for once it gets fixed), and changed to P&N style movement.
