Tech Trees Dev Diary

Odd.. I just logged out / cleared my cookies and it seems to be working for me. Are you still running into this problem?

Cleared my cookies and still can not access it. Says I don't have permissions. Tried it from another PC and from my ipod touch.

Now if I log out I can access it from all three devices, it has something to do with my account here. Strange...

---Question----
"Stealth Orbitals : High energy hide-and-seek. +10% per rank increase in orbitals avoiding detection" -
I am assuming the bonus multiplies an already established "Stealth strength"? Like the base strength is 10 and having the skill at rank 5 would give you a strength of 15 which is rolled against by someone trying to detect you?

Or is the bonus percentage the strength where with rank 9 you would have a 90% or 100% chance of avoiding detection.

Any ideas? Like I said, if I log out I can access it fine. Its just when I am logged into this account that I am restricted.

Cham - You can only research one technology at a time so to rank up a technology you already have means for going researching new technologies. (I still habitually call them skills but technically they're technologies)

The stealth penalty reduction is relative so 78.5% of normal speed would be the maximum speed of rank 9 cloaked ships.

Currently you can kill yourself with a blackhole, I suppose we should do something about that but it would be pretty funny to an outside observer.

Spar - Yes, it's a modifier to a base stealth / detection value.
