The improved Combat Sensor has this. Does this mean in both melee AND ranged it's harder to hit, or just in melee combat it is harder to hit?

harder to hit in both melee and ranged, stackable
Bear in mind that criticals ignore hit chance, and there is a large chance to score a Graze when rolling a miss
When something only provides dodge against a single type of attack, it will mention it specifically. For example, the Guardian Daemon mod for Synthesis provides a 25% hit chance reduction against ranged attacks specifically.

Just a small addition from hte 1.006 Beta:
"Critical chance of an attack is now capped by the hit chance of the attack. I.e. an attack with 20% chance to hit cannot have a crit chance of over 20%. This to prevent stacking crit increases from becoming an exploit."

Am I right in thinking that the chance to hit or graze is not improved by a higher crit chance? How can you calculate the odds of a graze? Is there a master chart anywhere spelling out the interactions between resistance, range and crits etc?
as far as I know Graze chance is hit chance + 25%. So if You have 50% hit chance if You score between 51 and 75 You graze.
Now this is more complicated:
Graze is as Uto_piec said, "hit chance +25%".
Crit is a seperate roll, made before the hit roll. A critical means you always do full hits +50% damage this attack. I think those also guarantee Secondary effects to apply.
So if you got 25% Crit, 50% Hit the chances are:
First a roll on 25% is made if you crit. If you roll those 25%, Hit chance is ignored and you do full hits with the Crit Bonus. The same is true abotu fumble rolls. And it is possible to have both (high Morale + Roy-2 Distracting Pheromones).
If you fail the crit, a 50% Hit roll is made. If you hit, you do Full hits.
If the Hit roll fails but not by more then 25% (51-75%), you still do grazing hits at 50% damage (and no Secondary Effects)
That also means that starting with 75% or more, you are guarnteed to do some damage. Even if you fail the hit roll, you will at least Graze.
It is worth nothing that with 1.006, effective Crit Chance is capped at Hit Chance. So if you got a listed 50% crit but only 25% hit on this attack, you only roll 25% crit. This pre-emtpively avoids Crit overstacking as a poissble source of abuse.
