Sandbox Shields
"Sandbox Shields" is a catchy name I couldn’t not use for shields that actually would work in all gamemodes.
This addon adds shields from the Draconic Base to all players when they initially spawn. The shields have 100 health, and have a five second recharge delay after taking damage. These shields are only visible when taking damage or when they recharge. In the images above where the shield is permanently on it was done through a debug command in the Draconic Base.
This addon was created merely as an example for the Draconic Base’s shield functionality. If you want to know how this system works / how to use it yourself / how to make your HUD compatible with this system, then check the wiki page here for documentation: https://github.com/Vuthakral/Draconic_Base/wiki/Shield-System
This addon has the following convars:
- sv_sandshields_enabled — Turn the mod on/off
- sv_sandshields_shielddelay — How long after being hit should shields start to regenerate
- sv_sandshields_shieldhealth — Total HP of the shield players have
- sv_sandshields_shieldregenamount — Enter a number for how much health per second you want to recharge. (Default 33)
These values update for players on respawn.

Everything I do is free because I can find some fun in making it, or because it helps others make fun things.
