When an object cloaks/decloaks (or, in case of submarine units in Red Alert 2, submerges/emerges), it turns invisible/visible in steps of increasing/decreasing translucency. This flag determines the number of those steps.
Higher number of stages means slower overall cloaking, adjusted further by CloakingSpeed for objects with inherent stealth ability.
