Defense Shields - v2.2(8)

Описание
Version: DefenseShields - v2.2(8)

Major Update!
2.2 brings a major update to defense shields. You will notice a new shield HUD ui which represents some new functionality that is critical to getting the most out of your shields.

*UPDATE* Shield side/face health pools have been added. Also added an "Automatic Management" mode (on by default in the controller), this mode self manages heat, shunting, modulation etc.. but comes at a recharge cost and is not nearly as effective as skilled manual control.

Two new core concepts have been added in this version, shield vulnerability and heat sinking. As your shield becomes more vulnerable you will notice a new icon show up on the left of your shield hud this value represents how likely a projectile is to penetrate your shield. The more heat your shield builds up and the lower its HP the higher the chance of penetration. This leads into the second new feature heatsinking, using the heat sink action will rapidly redirect heat from the shield to the emitter, which will both decrease the shields heat but also temporarily decrease your shields max (icon on the right) possible hp, both of which will greatly reduce the chance for penetration. In addition the existing shunting feature also has a very powerful counter penetration effect, so be sure to deploy this existing feature to avoid penetrations.

The other big change in this update is with modulation. Previously modulating would be very punishing when the enemy used the opposite damage and it was near impossible to find a good balance. With this update you now get rewarded for modulating into the predominate damage type you are taking, which will show up as the color of the shield planet on the hud icon. If the color is more orange you want to increase energy protection until its white, if its more blue you increase kinetic protection until its more white. If the icon is white you are receiving optimal protection.

*NOTE* Hud icon can be resized and moved, type /ds in game to see commands.

Thanks to Whip for all of the fancy math help... math makes what would otherwise be dull and lifeless beautiful. Last but certainly not least, a big thanks to Nukeguard for the shield models/textures, shield hud icon, Modulator blocks, damage enhancer blocks, armor emitter blocks, block balancing, particles, testing, guide and more!

Thanks to Alysius for reworking the shield hit wave effects!

Could anyone point me in the right direction of the file that will allow me to edit the maximum shield size?

@Grunt
i woudl say that question is best asked towards mes itself as mes handles putting shields on npc ships that dont have them in theyre bp.
Grunt 8 июл в 1:06 
is there a way to make certain NPC faction ships spawn with a shield, Like the Reavers: Terror of the Verse or pirates?

due to the negative hp cap i would go for a case of file corruption.
delete all modrelated files from the workshop folder, the main storage folder and the world specific storage folde before doing a clean redownload. make sure you dont miss a folder or config file related to defense shields.
Balian of Ibelin 5 июл в 11:22 
I have a minor question:

The Shield Control Table lists the CAPHP as -88, and the Shield HP bounces between -88 and approx 1,300,000. No error shows up and the base's power generation is not fluctuating.

The shield icon, when standing in the shield field, is Grey in the Center surrounded by a dashed white circle. The outer fields, I assume for directional shunting, are all red. Is something wrong, or is this normal behavior?

without modifying stuff no.

someone o nthe discord did find a way with modifying files, but i think it does have some other effects too.

Hey :) is there anyway of stopping people that admin being able to bypass shields even without any of the admin stuff selected.

someone without admin can't bypass shields but those with admin can which makes it really cheaty on the admin part

as far as i understand it it works via power producers (reactors, solar panels, wind turbines) and the amount of power they outpui in relation to the amount of blocks and the shield area.
a battery is no power producer but a power consumer in regards to the power network, atleast to my understanding.
Korny 24 июн в 14:14 
How does Power Density work, I was at 0.98 and added 4 batteries and the Power Density went down to 0.90. I dont get how this value works.

@Werido989
in theory its posisble but it will have an effect on all shields.
there is a "DefenseShields.cfg" inside "%appdata%\SpaceEngineers\Storage" (filepath may vary if you dot use windows) in which you can customize some of the shields performance parameters.
