Bug Description

Stealth units and buildings should not be transparent, to avoid lag. Instead, they should get an baby blue alpha image(simlar to the black alpha image EMP units get).

##### ADDITIONAL INFORMATION #####
If implanted, we can maybe start using Stealth Generator again.

That's not an alpha image, thats a tinting, like the one IronCurtain, Berserk and ForceShield uses.

The idea itself is nice, tho.

Yeah, thats what I mean, tinting.

But from the enemy's perspective they are still transparent (I assume when fully cloaked they simply have some kind of 100% transparent effect on them) so when the enemy views your base it would still lag, surely?

I am pretty sure that when they're fully cloaked, they're not drawn - it's the partial transparency used during cloak/uncloak sequences and on your own cloaked units that's causing the lag.
