I like this. What would the fleet be titled? Would it be the sender's name?

And how many ships does it show?

[mackman]

The fleet should have the name of the sender.Also the sender should be able to input the type of fleet seen on dsp.

Ever heard of "decoys"? that way you could send it near your base and the enemy will think that you have a fleet strong enough

this probes fleet consists of
1000 class one
128 class two
25 class three
1 class four

all these ships are about 1/5 of 5000
thay are also the symple ships
the ones you gat at the start

[Lou of East from West]

And what if u got 3 fleets on position + this probe...
Err....

[admin]

this is the best probe i found in the inventions so far

i think we will add it

[mjx1]

i think it would be funny

Mr. X walks is walking through the blackhole one day when suddenly

"AAAHHH NO MY PLANET IS BEING ATTACKED ALL IS LOST I MUST GO QUICKLY AAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!"

April fools Mr.X lol

This idea is brilliant!


Imagine an alliance in control of a score planet, and suddenly they see 20 "incomings" on their planets and have to leave.

This probe could be used so much!

Brilliant!

Absolutely brilliant!

EDIT: Oh, and I guess probe one, would show up as "fleet1" probe 2 "fleet2" and probe 3 "fleet3" annd if you research final exploration.... what would wouldprobe 4 be?

[admin]

another nice name for it would be "holo probe"

[lilkrnboi1018]

I really like this idea, and i think it should be put in the game

[admin]

we are not sure anymore.

it would lead to disappointing situations only.

so maybe a drawback:
1. it can send out the fleet signatures only while moving.
2. only one way probe. when it reaches its target, then it selfdestructs (optionally: one course change possible)

[ludeffnu]

i think that if you ad it, it should be e-ray because it uses holo-tech
of some kind

please ad it
