Detection is a complicated process involving many variables. The factors break down into three categories: skill, light, sound. These three factors are added together. An initial penalty of -25 is applied. If the result is above zero, the actor is detected. | Detection is a complicated process involving many variables.

All three are subject to distance attenuation. The further away, the less effect they have. Indoors, the maximum distance is 1500 units. Outdoors the maximum is 3000 units. | All three are subject to distance attenuation. The further away, the less effect they have. Indoors, the maximum distance is [[FSneakMaxDistance|1500 units]].

At the moment an actor initiates combat, a one time bonus of +100 is added, making it a virtual certainty that for a moment the actor will detect his assailant. In that moment, the actor can decide to enter combat or not. | At the moment an actor initiates combat, a [[FSneakTargetAttackBonus|one time bonus of +100]] is added, making it a virtual certainty that for a moment the actor will detect his assailant.

Once detected, the actor has to get his detection value below a negative threshold for the other actor to lose him. [[FSneakLostMin|By default this is -20]]. If the actor is in combat with the target, a [[IAICombatMinDetection|lower threshold of -50]] has to be reached to lose him. | |||
*'''Skill:''' The difference between the actor's sneak skills. It is modified by the distance between actors. | *'''Skill:''' The difference between the actor's sneak skills. It is modified by the distance between actors. | ||
