Does anyone know the new equation for active sensor calculation? I've approximated it to:
Range = 18,517,239*SQRT(Strength/10*Size/1*Sensitivity/5)*(Resolution/100)^(1/3)
I don't know where 18,517,239 comes from, it seems like a magic number. Supposedly it is based on some equation that takes in Strength = 10, Size = 1, Sensitivity = 5, and Resolution = 100 and gives 18,517,239.

Sensor Range = SQRT((Racial Sensor Strength * HS * Racial EM Sensitivity * (Resolution ^ (1/1.5)) / PI) * 1,000,000 km

Thanks for that link. One very minor correction is that he uses 3.1416 for pi. (I'm only stating this for anyone who might see this in the future)

Can confirm in this formula pi is 3.1416, at least it is the closest I can get. The same formula is used in my missile and ship optimizer.
Although I also found out not all formulas with pi uses 3.1416 :P

Pi is a wonderfully transcendental number :)

In fairness, 3.1416 is shorter to type than Math.PI.

But horribly less accurate!
