How to make a completely invisible ship
... and by 'completely' I mean invisible to sensors and eyes. I want an object that can not be seen by the eye, can be targeted if friendly, not be targeted if hostile (can easily be solved by using the 'stealth' flag) and that can move at lets say 50 or so mps at maximum.
So a bit like those nav points from WCS, just able to move. ;-)

I already tried to just remove all the textures from a retail Ulysses fighter, but this doesn't work.

FRED, make object invisible? I think there's something like that.

then use stealth then set to neutral
I can no longer sit back and allow communist infiltration, communist indoctrination, communist subversion, and the international communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids.

Re: How to make a completely invisible ship
Switch to transparent textures via texture replacement.

Thrusters... either give it invisible thrusters or no thruster textures at all, or turn the engines off when it's invisible (disable engines temporarily or something).
There are three things that last forever: Abort, Retry, Fail - and the greatest of these is Fail.
