Space Empires V FAQs
Is it possible to have warp points that are only visible to certain sensor levels? Also, can a sensor have a variable scanning level at range? Example: sensor has level 10 scanning out to range 5, then level 9 scanning out to range 10.

if there is a way i don't know what it is. as far as i can tell all 'stellar bodies' cannot be cloaked.
and theres a thread on making scanners weaker at range but i can't find it and i don't remember what it said.
i think in components.txt you can edit the different scanners 'abilities' lists. using iif functions
iff range > 3 scan level 1, else scan level 5
not sure on exact function but you get the idea.
Re: Invisible Warp Points/Variable Sensors
WPs cannot be cloaked or otherwise hidden from view, beyond the initial status when they haven't been "discovered" yet in a new system.
