Sensory Chamber Question

locallyunscene · December 2003

<div class="IPBDescription">a little confusion</div> Okay if they have motion tracking can they see you any time you are moving or if you're in the range of a sensory chamber does that block mt. And what about walking?

Cleric_Epoch · December 2003

Motion Tracking (MT) Will pick you if you are doing any of the following;

If you are running,
If you are walking and not cloak,

Motion Tracking (MT) Will NOT pick you if you are doing any of the following;

If you are cloaked and stationary,
If you are walking and cloaked,
If you are running and cloaked,
If you are completely Still,

Hope this helps, any one else wanna add anything I have forgoten?

Sensory Chambers do render Motion Tracking useless IF the Alien player is within range of the Sensory Chamber.

BUT

If an Observatory is built within range of the Sensory Chamber, I do believe it uncloaks the Sensory Chamber, along with Cloaked Aliens, thus allowing Motion Tracking to work.

thank you so much

observatories dont decloak cloaked buildings, but they will show up as blue rings.

Thank you, and for further clarification if you are cloaked and walking, not in teh range of a sensory tower, mt will pick you up. I was forunately a marine when I discovered this to be true <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'>

Observatories will decloak alien structures in their radius of effect in v3.0 I believe.

If you are walking cloacked (with cloacking UPGRADE) NOT in sc's range... are you shown on MT <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'>

I want to be sure.

If you are walking and cloaked, either by an SC or the upgrade cloaking MT will not detect you.

Cloaking negates motion either way. So thats why if your inside a sensory range, your cloaked, so it devoids the MT.

I'm not sure if when an obs is near a sensory the motion will pick you up. Thats a big "if" right there, because it just might be a property of the sensory chamber itself to block MT, or it just cloaks you, and cloaking blocks MT.

Either way, if your cloaked, your safe. If your uncloaked, stay still.

EDIT:: Woo, 1500th post.

(3.0)

If a obs is by a sensory chamber area of effect, the obs will override all of the sensory chamber cloaking in the obs' area of effect. All aliens and structures will be uncloaked, and motion track will function normally. Outside of the obs' area of effect, the sensory chamber functiond normally.
