SJ, thanks for that but it sounds quite a palaver to do that - stupid question, does the cargo transfer button work b/w 2 ships in space????

2) Nebulae Range from cloaking level 1 to 5. If you're deploying in a nebula, the stealth armor will be worthless, since the nebula does that for you .

Doh,, I know that but the nebula does not seem to 'stretch' to cover the warp points in the system, or at least in my experience, ships on the warp points in a nebula system are as visible as each other

Red, and cyan(IIRC) are levels 5 and 4, and there is no unmodded sensor to pierce that. Mines are your only alternative.
In the other 3 color nebulae, a level 3 sensor will do fine.

I agree, at early tech levels though I just built a sensor buoy with stealth armour and that is it - the purpose of it is to act as a ship in a system to spot the baddies - I dont see the AI using cloaking technology very much so dont need advanced sensor technology at this stage
