Firing Through Cloak

posted on September 19th, 2010, 2:45 pm

How would I make it so that a vessel can fire through the cloak?  I also want to make it so that the cloak doesn't disable the shields, but can still be detectable through a standard tachyon ping.

this is already in game.

vet rhienns can fire through cloak

and gen specs have combat cloak. which keeps shields up while cloaked.

look at those for how to do it.

Just copy the Stationary cloak with different requirements and a different tooltip. That one already does everything you mentioned (not sure about detection, though).

Thanks.  Oh, and the romulan station cloak can be detected with a tachyon ping.

You mean like the K'vort's shield breaking torpedo that can fire while cloaked?

Doesn't really seem like something you'd expect many Klingons to do. Kinda cowardly... the cowardly one already has more weapons on the B'rel than the Klingon one.

The odd torp or 2 is fine, but full-time?
