Web Minefield

[edit] Overview

Ships can move safely through a Web Minefield at speed 6 or less.
Web Minefields cause ships to become more visible as they attempt to pass through them.
Any ship or wing stops moving when hitting a Web Minefield. New to host 198: Ships with a hull mass of over 500kt can crash through web mines and only have a 10% chance that a web mine hit will stop the ship.
Detonating a Web Minefield stops any ships and wings that are inside the detonated minefield.
A ship that is inside of a detonating Web Minefield will sustain 10% engine damage per detonation. Ships with no engines are immune to the Web Minefield effects.
Web Minefields do not drain fuel as they did in VGA Planets 3.
Setting a web minefield to cloaked will not make it harder to be swept.

A ship hitting a web mine takes at least 20 of engine damage. A 100 kt mass hull can take between 20 and 40 points of engine damage.

Hull Damage    =  (100 / Hull Mass) * (RND(0 to 4) + 20)
Engine Damage  =  (100 / Hull Mass) *  RND(0 to 40) + 40

Flying through Web minefields increases your visibility. Every phase that you are in a Web Minefield adds (Phase_VECTOR * 5) + 1. If you are going speed 100 you will gain 3.5 noise units per phase.

Any enemy or ally ship that is in a web minefield that explodes takes 10% engine damage and the ship is stopped.
Minefields, pods, wings are not affected.
Your sensor image doesn't change from a detonated Web minefield.
The Light Speed drive of a Virgo Class is turned off when hit by a detonating Web minefield.

The Crystal Assembly race is immune to Web minefield detonations, regardless of what ship they are using.
The Crystal Assembly hulls are immune to moving through Web minefields, regardless of who owns the ship.
Ships of the Scavenger Tribes have 2x the chance to hit a web minefield.
RCS Maelstorm Class Light Cruiser is a true cloaker & immune to all minefields.
