Hello,

Posted this question in IS section, but no reply in the last couple of days. As it is somewhat effort taking task to make a proper testbed for this, I'd like to check if maybe somebody knows (already checked) what TD guts really are.
In advance, thanks for you help.

Hello,

I was reading this {New Tachyon Detectors (TD) Question from IS} thread as well as another Tachyon Detectors related, but can't really figure out the guts of it.
Say enemy fleet is 35% cloaked and my ship is equipped with 3 Tachy giving 91% 'anti-cloak-effectiveness' or 9% reduction.

Question: reduction means:
A) 35% * 0,91 ~= 32% cloaking, so my fleet's (having TDs) scanners are 68% effective against the enemy's fleet
B) 35% - 9% = 26% cloaking, so my fleet's (having TDs) scanners are 74% effective against the enemy's fleet

With higher cloaking percentage, the difference in 2 methods is less, but still I am curious what are the real guts of TD.

Regards,
Feliks the curious
