I see no reason to pander to genpop when you have a game you're specifically trying to replicate. :P

Re: Shields in SAFSO - PUBLIC INPUT WANTED
Well part of your problem is going to be I don't know if Wanderer's multi part shield code
ever got put into the main builds. FotG and FringeSpace have been asking for that for quite
some time.

Granted quad and auto focus are already do-able. Single I'm not sure of as we've not had a use for it.

Based on your mod design though, single or single with auto focus.

*cough* we called it "smart shields" in tach *cough*

I've been playing Descent for almost 15 years now, so a single shield bubble works just fine for me. :p

Of course I will, that's why I love my shields.
