Re: Congrats Apprime
Really this is all about whether you value having a 100% watertight game or people playing the game as freely as they want to.
Hardcoding is only a partial solution. Support planets can still attack and scan and no doubt will adapt by having purely attacking fleets to escort those in tag.
In my view we are better off having freedom as VNC is banned anyway. Obviously it's very hard to detect but that doesn't mean we should destroy aspects of our gameplay to crack down on it. If you're opposed to support planets, I'd like to see how you classify one alliance defending another out of political and military necessity to win a war. Because if you stop that, then you're destroying a significant part of metagame.
