The major premise of siphons in the first place is that they wouldn’t be detected unless the owner checks.

Im against adding options for citadel owners which are already there.

How about the syphon becomes a drag on the citadel’s grid and CPU use? Give it a longish online time (1 hour+) though. I agree with those that said that they were more nuisances than anything else though. A decent patrol every so often did for them without a problem.

What if siphons could cloak? The siphon controller sets multiple vulnerability windows when it decloaks to grab fuel.

Naturally someone could still stumble upon it and decloak the structure.

That sounds a little complicated and truth be known, a little easy for the attacker.
