Summary0024649: Marauders being anti-spy
DescriptionMarauder outposts have such strong anti-stealth capabilities (outposts w/ max range decloaking at irresistible strength) that they frequently snipe my spies. It's rather annoying since even traveling thru their worlds with spies is difficult. Is this intended?

As an aside, I noticed a typo in the Marauder Outpost description which is present in the screenshot: "about this outpostls centerpiece"

Yes, because otherwise marauder logic can be circumvented by clever use of cloaked ships.

Can an exception be made for spies somehow? Perhaps by introducing a mechanic that distinguishes between offensive and harmless stealth units, so that marauders only have this hyper-detection capability against the former?

I don't really have a problem with marauders making life hard for spies personally, but Chris might be more amenable to making changes in this area

I don't have a problem with marauders making life hard for spies. Spies are mostly used to abuse hunters, and they can be removed from the game for all I care.
