Maybe I'm imagining it, but it seems that the amount of time the Scouty Spark spends traveling (before finally doing its big reveal and vanishing) is random.

Anybody know of a way to control/predict how far a Scouty will travel before doing its big reveal?

Does anybody have specific info on how Hostility Level meters increase or decrease?
All I've seen so far is that it supposedly increases as you defend yourself, but there's got to be more to it than that. For example, after one battle, the level actually went down! I had taken a lot of Spark casualties on the battle, but no buildings were impacted.
