Title: Problem With Shield Generators
Post by: Spanner on April 12, 2009, 10:38:31 AM

I've got a bit of a weird problem, when the sheild generators on a ship are destroyed the shields of the ship still stay up and are uneffected. There is an error in the console to do with EngineerCharacterHandlers.py any ideas.

console dump attached.


Any help would be appreciated,

Spanner

I have to admit, it's been a while since I had the player ship in such a state that the shields were destroyed.

I'm afraid this is, sort of, a known problem. It's the reason why you don't (anymore0 see ships with shields with a maximum strength of 0.

I'll guard against it in a future DiamondBC release.
But for the moment all I can say is, try not to get your shield generators destoryed. ;)

It's easy to reproduce, just create a ship with a shieldgenerator with a maximum charge of 0.
It will produce an error on ship load.
