Build shields. Stop bullets, rockets, explosions, drop pods, meteorites, super space lasers, and more!

• Stop projectiles (bullets, rockets, grenades, mortars, drop pods) from entering the shield
• Stop explosions from propagating into shields
• Stop skyfallers (drop pods, meteorites, ship debris)
• Stop bombardments (at staggering electricity cost!)
• Allows projectiles from inside to exit the shield
• Shields use a small amount of idle power
• Shield strength is the stored energy on your power net
• Shields generators will heat up as the shields absorb damage and will shut off if they overheat
• Shields exceeding their thermal threshold can suffer from three stages of breakdowns:
  • minor: Zzzt event with no fire or explosion
  • major: minor and a normal breakdown of the shield
  • critical: major, minor, and a small explosion

• Stop movement of pawns in or out of the shields
• Stop fires

• Shields come in three sizes:
  • small (3m)
  • medium (3m - 10m)
  • large (5m - 25m)
• The small shield is minifiable and portable and contains an internal battery (1000 Wd, 50% efficient)
• Larger shields can soak more heat before the shield collapses

The AI has been modified to be aware of shields. Colonists will not attempt to hunt through shields. AI will not attempt to shoot through shields that belong to their own faction. AI will prioritize shooting at unshielded targets and will prefer to take cover in areas that are shielded.

Tradeships will never shoot cargo pods into an area even if a shield is currently down. Raiders will not attempt to enter via drop pods in shielded areas.

Contributions will be credited to the authors. Merged contributions will be owned by the mod itself (important for future license changes, but we anticipate that never happening).

We want to support as many languages as possible. If you would like to submit translations please submit them as pull request.

Please do! We designed this to be as modular as possible. New shields can be implemented from IShield like Comp_ShieldRadial. Handlers for what shields stop are best implemented as harmony patches like Harmony_Projectile.
