Another Medium Shield
"This is my medium shield. There are many like it, but this one is mine"
Standalone from my Adjustable Shields mod.
DO NOT use both mods!. They will conflict and crash if used together.!
If this one is part of your designs and you "upgrade" to the adjustable mod, the adjustable version should replace these. Will work alongside the main mod. Having both means you will get a "standard" medium shield and an "adjustable" one…. but honestly this mod is not required if you have the bigger, better mod.
This version of the shield can not be adjusted for colour or angle.
It is designed around blending in with base game shields defaults.
A medium shield. Good Health. Good shield health. Can project through ships (can be placed internally), in normal operation mode.
See screenshots for details.
Note screenshots may be outdated to actual code 🙂
Overclocked this hybrid shield gets a hybrid overclock. The shield both extends and hardens. It also gains two side-arcs that have the restriction of not being able to penetrate stuff, while the forward arc still can. This opens up new and interesting ways to use the part to get the "bonus" coverage.
Given 2 more door locations on each edge.
Heat port additions are to all normal door locations, plus 2 more spots on the lower edge and one more spot at the top middle.
Some graphical/sprite fixes. A minor re-balance to costing/construction.
The OC’ed side shields are behaving really weirdly with respect to corridors (and some other parts!), as to what blocks them and where the corridors/etc are placed in relation to the sides. I have no idea what/why/how this happens as the "blocked by" option is built into the shield arc options (and works perfectly fine for large shields?).
Many thanks to Walt & Kroom for the original inspiration.
