Cloaking Bug

runrhino15

Cloaking will frequently bug out and render the player from uncloaking to engage the target. More specifically, when the player selects to decloak, the ship begins to decloak but recloaks amidst the decloaking process. I have not found any bridge officer ability or console ability that properly uncloaks the ship. One console ability tried: Multi-Target Tractor Arrays. It should disable the cloak, but it does not.

I noticed it too when I cloak more than twice during a mission. When mission is completed it returns to normal.

Hmm, I haven't encountered this during my Klingon recruit's missions (and I've certainly been cloaking/re-cloaking more than twice per mission to get as-many-as-possible Ambush kills).

Then again, most every time before I decloak, I activate Emergency-Weapons and/or Cannon-Scatter-Volley beforehand. I've rarely (if ever) just not activated an ability before decloaking... maybe it's something related to that?

I havent identified a specific trigger to the bug, but I have had numerous cases where I have cloaked/battle cloaked and could not uncloak. It can be extremely frustrating when this bug occurs.

Yes I'm experiencing this too. To narrow it down a bit. The issue is with Battle cloak getting stuck while cloaked. The standard version and enhanced version are working properly. Battle Cloaking has been a issue sense the game launched on ALL platforms. PLEASE fix this considering there are now cloaking starship traits that do not work because of the known issue with cloak getting stuck. If one wishes to use a temporary fix to get out of cloak use the BOFF ability mask energy signature. It will remove the cloak but you have to waste a sci slot to do it.... not cool.
