Scanner in Hyper Space.

[SergMx]

In Super Cruise mode, do not give out any information about the ships. No weapons or other information.
Do not even write the class of the ship. Only that it is large, small or medium.
The belonging of the mission should be visible.

This sounds pretty dull and like it would just result in further risk adverse behavior.

If I couldn't get any idea of who was trying to pull me out of SC I'd just treat them all as worst case and run.

I think the opposite is more interesting than the existing mechanics.
What are these scanners on ships that even in the super cruise can see the number of missiles on another ship?
Remember the novel, until the hero looked into the illuminator he could not understand what kind of ship attacked him.
Yes I can believe in a super scanner that detects the type of ship in normal space, but for it to still work in a super cruise makes the game more predictable and more boring.

Again, right now if you see the ship is something you think you can beat people will drop and engaged. What you're asking for will just make it so that people always just run. I'm not sure why you think that would make for better gameplay.

I'm sorry, I must have misunderstood your translation.

But already now in the game somehow magically separate people and not (hollow square) and almost always when meeting people people immediately surrender to make a long jump. Few people don't realize that if you resist a human you will usually lose and get a penalty to FSD, then you will usually get killed.

But that's not what I mean, I mean the mechanics of the game should be more scientific. All the same, detailed scanning of ships in a super cruise need very strong equipment.

......

There are bigger scientific issues than this.

Like idk the complete removal of relativity and instantaneous travel of information.

This entirely depends on your ships and relative abilities. I have escaped players and had players get away from me many times. You have a pretty decent window to submit and avoid the penalty once it becomes clear that you are going to lose.
