If 2 SB's are in the same fleet will they uncloak each other when they are close to each other? I'm wondering if the same rules apply with fleeted ships.

Yes they will decloak each other, fleet has nothing to do with it.

Exactly my thoughts and why I said to test it.

Cloaked ships do not currently decloak each other. Fleet or not is irrelevant.

Any uncloaked object coming within 2000m of a cloaked ship will decloak it.

Note that this is currently changed on the test server--cloaked ships within 2000m decloak each other. Not in a devblog or patch notes, so might be a bug, or might be an intended change.

I don't recall the source, but I heard that this was intentional, and that they will be decloaking eachother in the future because it was deemed a little unblanaced if they didn't (ISBoxers bombing someone with 20 stealth bombers or something like that). Can't recall the source though, so that might just be the rumor mill.

Until its said by a dev or in a blog that they are doing this i would treat it as hear-say
But right now they are decloaking each other on Sisi, TQ is still safe

Wouldn't it be easier to just ban ISBoxing? OK, not easier perhaps, but wouldn't it be better for gameplay to ban ISBoxer in lieu of making cloaky work much more difficult for actual players working together???

One would think, however they haven't said anything about it to my knowledge so it might just be a bug(they are introducing more effects so there's plenty to screwup.).

This may or may not lead one to believe it is a change, not a bug. I could not find any official comment either.

Cloaked ships will once again decloak each other if they come within 2km.
