Title: Super front shield...
Post by: hydremajor on August 17, 2012, 04:50:10 AM

So yeah...

lets say you mod a onslaught

put a omni shield generator hullmod

after that you can put on the front shield generator

then remove Omni shield generator

And BOOM you get a super mega shield of DOOOOOM

In case of you wondering what this does

Funny fact: that thing still has enough OP to field its full medium size weapon set

Good spot.

It's also possible to do the reverse.

- Take an omni shield ship
- Add Front Shield Emitter
- Add Omni Shield Emitter
- Remove the Front Shield Emitter

Bug: The Omni Shield Emitter isn't removed.
Obviously this bug isn't such an advantage  ::)


Interestingly neither bug occurs if the "Front Shield Generator" mod is active, meaning you can't have 'super front shield' on an ordinarily unshielded ship.

Thanks for reporting these. Fixed all around, finally, I think :)

I kind of like it, it's basically an elite tweak.
