[MOD] Shields!

[LittleMikey]

The shield works very simply, and I like it for that. Any bullet can go out, no bullet can come in.

It can very much work against you if you don't use them carefully. For example, if a bunch of tribals swarm your shooters who are inside the shield, then the tribals are in the shield...

You could hook them up to a switch from the Power Switches mod and use that as a controller for now.
Oh.... I foresee the great misery happening. Can't you have a button to turn it off? Or at least cut the powah.

[Austupaio]

Yeah, it's got a power switch just like lights.

Hay! So I'm currently in love with the idea of more sci-fi items in the game, I was thinking, okay, so we can make force fields.. and that it's going to be supported in the main build, so its a thing.. then, why not Force Field Doors? You know, more expensive than electric doors, uses more power too but opens / closes faster, has a glowing effect so it doubles as a kind of a light for that entrance, it comes in Red, blue and green? So the model would be two like brackets on each side of the door frame with then a field of light between the brackets?

Don't find it like a force field door... more like a adv electric door

[Darth Fool]

Force field doors would be cool.  They should allow very rapid open/closing, but should default to open (obviously) when there is no power to them.

Going along the sci fi idea, what above a procedural "wall shield" example you place a wall of magnetic field generators or some such name then provide power. A shield wall that allows people travel but not bullets

Crim, it should also repel mechanized Humans!

[joshwoo69]

Crim, it should also repel mechanized Humans!

Or take damage and repealed

Good idea, and the post under yours, good idea also, it makes sense that robots would be damaged by a strong magnetic force. Or perhaps have force field, purely stopping bullets as tier 1, tier 2 repelling robots and bullets tier 3 also damaging robots and tier 4 more damage and also stopping humanoids from entering (or perhaps just strong damage or stun effects) ofc not being an insta-kill wall even at tier 4... Maybe the more damage the wall does to robot/human the more power it drains...

Also I love this mod.  Wish I could play sometime soon. xP

Hmm got a bit of a problem with a shield, it eats power regardles if i switch it on or off, also thers a wierd time after shield is build that it dont eats power at all, yet it charges itself and remain at 100% for some time, it taks some time didnt check if its time base or it got any other trigger, it dont eats power during that time.

Also i got a small suggestion, that there would be a power charge ability, that would havled remaning charge time but will drain 10x -20x more power. It could be toggable so it would work also on fully deployed forcfield to regenerate 2x-3x faster.

[Celthric Aysen]

same...
it doesn't use power until you load your save.

Hi,
Does this work with Alpha 4 can anyone verify this please, I'm starting a new game with mods would like to know if its safe to use. I know its for Alpha 3 but just hoping it does not conflict with Alpha 4 core game.

[Videotapes]

Anexgohan, I tried earlier and it throws a bunch of errors when the mod is selected for use.  I don't know if it still functions in-game or not.

[Justin C]

A lot has changed with the code between Alpha 3 and Alpha 4. Any mod that uses any kind of library will need to be updated before it will work with Alpha 4.
