Decloak objects (cans, abandoned drones, etc) on gate camp bubbles. What are the true practices of you GMs regarding this? is there a rule of thumb how much is too much?

It is too much when our systems and procedures indicates so. Sorry, can’t be more specific :wink:

I know this isn’t helpful at all, so let’s put it this way:

As to the tactic itself, it is ok if you drop some drones or containers and position them in a way to disturb ships coming from particular directions. You won’t need that many drones or containers for that. But if you are thinking about covering whole gate from each possible direction with a mass of drones or containers, then this is not the way to do it as you would require hundreds of drones and that may cause lag.

I hope this makes sense, but feel free to ask for a clarification, if needed.
