This could indeed pose a problem. I'd say it should probably be 5+1% of the upper, so 995-1000 +-5.
I mean, sure you could still refit your ships cheaply to not be detected that early, but first you need to know at what distances to
And as said, I think we now need a rework of cloaking fields.
Maybe make them reduce the ships detection range as if they would be smaller, but keep the effective range?
A ship with 200 HS and a 98% cloaking field is effectively 4 HS, can be detected at optimal range by an R4 sensor, and only from very close by an R200 Sensor, but a Narrowband R4 sensor should probably not pick it up at four times the range.
However, an R200 Narrowband sensor would hardly pick it up, so thats no solution.
No idea, honestly.
