Asteroid cloud cover
Should asteroids really have Cloud Spans or High Cloud Cover?
Re: Asteroid cloud cover
There's been plenty of talk about FO not needing to be particularly realistic, but that combination doesn't sit right with me. I'd say no, they shouldn't.
Re: Asteroid cloud cover
Yeah, I'd have to agree with that. The current stealth specials don't necessarily apply very well in all cases, especially Cloud Cover and Volcanic Ash. There could be alternate, similar specials for Asteroids and Gas Giants though, like "High Nebulous Activity" and "Concentrated Space Dust" or something like that.
Warning: Antarans in dimensional portal are closer than they appear.

Re: Asteroid cloud cover
They're relevant for asteroids at least, because Exobots.
Re: Asteroid cloud cover
They certainly have gameplay value regardless, since outposts need to be hidden as well, but I was working under the assumption that the thread was referring to the "realism" aspect, which is why I suggested alternate, but functionally equivalent specials.Toksyuryel wrote:They're relevant for asteroids at least, because Exobots.

Yup, it's certainly not trying to simulate reality but this one seemed a bit out there...Bigjoe5 wrote:They certainly have gameplay value regardless, since outposts need to be hidden as well, but I was working under the assumption that the thread was referring to the "realism" aspect, which is why I suggested alternate, but functionally equivalent specials.
