When a player character walks past a hidden creature, they search all adjacent tiles. A random number is rolled from 1 to the searcher's [[Intelligence]], plus any additional bonuses to searching they may have. If this is greater than the hidden creature's difficulty, they will be revealed.{{Code Reference|class=Hidden}} This search can be performed multiple times by stepping back and forth until the hidden creature is revealed. [[True Kin]] characters can install a [[Penetrating radar]] implant to unerringly reveal any lurkers within its AOE. | When a player character walks past a hidden creature, they search all adjacent tiles.

Depending on the difficulty, the basic chance of successfully finding a hidden creature is: | |||
<math alt="intelligence - (difficulty - 1) / intelligence">\frac{\text{INT} - (\text{difficulty} - 1)}{\text{INT}}</math> | |||

[[Sewage eel]]s behave slightly different from other lurkers. Rather than existing but in hidden state, eels initially are nothing but a spawner, due to which they cannot be attacked until successfully revealed. Also their search difficulty is not a check against static number, but a percentage chance derived from searcher's [[Intelligence]] stat | [[Sewage eel]]s behave slightly different from other lurkers.
