Re: Suggestion for new feature: Auto equalize shields
Heh, well, it seems to me that if it does get implemented, then the best bet would be to assign it to ALT-Q, much as ALT T is auto target and ALT M is auto match speed :)

If it is coded as a new action you will be able to bind it to anything you want (look for Backslash beta builds and his multitargeting enhacements).
IF YOU HAVE TROUBLES WITH FS2:
  • Please, please, please, READ and UNDERSTAND the sticky threads in FreeSpace & FreeSpace Open Support board.
    A lot of people are willing to help you, but, as anyone can understand, seeing the very same "issues" repeated again and again can become quite depressing. Please, spend a bit of time trying to solve the issue by yourself.
    (Lobo deserves a monument).
  • Then, if you aren't still able to solve your issue, feel free to ask for help in that same board.
    FYI, most of the troubles are caused by wrong mod installations which lead to either missing data or undesired cross-effects between them. Always follow the mod installation instructions and keep a clean FS2 installation as explained in the sticky threads. Two additional links about how the game handles game data:
  • If you think that you've discovered a bug, mantis it.
    Provide as much info as you can, and try to narrow it down. A lonely "FS2 doesn't work" is not a good report.

Re: Suggestion for new feature: Auto equalize shields
I happen to agree with wolf421 a bit, it would make it a bit too easy for the player - so I rekon there should be some minor side affect to using the auto equalise, like it takes a second to act, dunno just an idea. *runs*

Let's remove auto-target and auto-match-speed then. These things also make game easier and for sure are "doing things for the player".

No they aren't, both of them are downright annoying.
