Auto Equalize Shields?
on: September 07, 2015, 11:51:45 am
What's a simple way (or a complex way, if need be) to implement auto-equalizing shields in a mod? Constantly pressing Q mid-dogfight takes attention away from actually dogfighting, so it'd be good to just automate that particular annoyance.

Please tell me this already exists and I just didn't find it.

Thanks!

Conversely, to talk about poverty and inequality, to draw attention to the reality that discrimination and injustice are still facts of life, is to commit the sin of political correctness. Anti-PC has become the latest cover for creeps. It is a godsend for every curmudgeon and crank, from fascists to the merely smug."

That'd be nice.  Like Auto-match Speed or Auto-Target. 

Press Shift-Q to toggle auto-equalize?

There's a script that'll do this. nuWoD also has a shield management script, I'm just not sure if it's this one or a different one. Lastly, there's a code change (PR) waiting to implement this as well.

Yeah I've been hoping that PR can get merged soon, now that it seems to be mod-controllable.
