| Summary | 0023915: Have sentry frigates do something autonomously. | ||||
| Description | Right now, sentry frigates, even combat ones, appear not to ever move of their own volition. They are the only ship that requires on-planet microing to find cloaked units. This should change! I'm sure you have ideas on how, but the range of sentry frigates could actually come down if they patroled! As an addendum to this, it would actually give a reason to enable auto-build of sentries as well. | ||||

I think one of the issues with this is that different ships have widely varying amounts of cloaking points, even without taking into account modding possibilities, not to mention they would be moving. How would a sentry frigate know it had spent 'long enough' in a location to reveal enemies before moving somewhere else in the system to search? |

Perhaps just get them to park an amount that would reasonably decloak almost anything - so around 6 seconds, since the most cloaking points almost anything has is 8,000 and this would be removed in 6 seconds by a mk 1 sentry frigate. Since this will handle almost all cases it seems fairly reasonable. |
