Alright so its time i post this, its kinda late, and i see this now still being up, i though when you leaved grid, the tractor beam would continue, i heard CCP devs say it was a problem a bug they where gonna fix, they did not fix it yet.

This means i bring up my awesome idea. You see its a tactic, while you are on grid the thing keeps tractoring, but then when you move off it stops. Even for cloaky ships, it just tractors when a player sees it.

That means has a advance strategy you could figure out if a cloaky is a grid by drop it, looking at the wreaks, and taking an look at your time watch, the tractor stops right when you are off normally, so i mean its simple.

There you go, ccp just introduced a module that can detect cloakers.
.... i wonder if they will fix this. If not i am sure some people will be happy after they learn this.

We fixed it almost a week ago.

No detecting AFK cloakers for you.

Could you clarify, does Mobile Tractor Unit detect cloaky ships or not? Please.

No. It is a Mobile Tractor Unit, not a Covert Ship Detection Unit.

Covert Ship Detection Unit confirmed for rubicon 1.1

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value
