Nerd's Shield Framework

This mod framework adds two types of blocks:
- Main shield blocks, and shield upgrade blocks. Main shield blocks provide the grid with a skintight shield that can be enhanced through shield upgrade blocks. They are however, limited to 1 per grid, with any more exploding.
- Shield upgrade blocks can only modify a ship's shield, not produce it, but have no limit and can be placed anywhere on the grid to modify the shield.
- Blocks will automatically work, so long as they are on. No user setup or maintenance is required beyond placing them.
- This framework comes with no new actual blocks! Use mods which have this as a dependency to get them.

Shields have various stats and damage multipliers, but the most important ones are the following:
- Shield HP (sHP): The strength of your shield
- Shield Regen (sHP/sec): How fast your shield HP regenerates
- Regen Cooldown: How long the shield takes to start regenerating after sustaining damage,
- Shield Bleedthrough: How much damage does the shield let through depending on the shield HP percent, with different shields having different bleedthrough curves.
- Shield damage type resistances - how much each damage type will damage your shield.

---

The mod automatically provides a shield HUD which displays critical information like shield HP, regen, and bleedthrough in an extremely easy to read manner (text).

The HUD can be toggled through the "/toggleshieldhud" command
The HUD can be moved through the "/setshieldpos <x pos> <y pos>" command, where X and Y range from -1 to 1 each, with (0, 0) being the center. Default is (0, 0.8). (1,1) is top right.


1. Download the Example Mod by subscribing to it. This may also require loading a world with the mod.
2. Copy the mod from steam's workshop storage (in this case, WhereYourSteamFolderIs\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\244850\3514216898) to your local mods folder (usually %AppData%\Roaming\SpaceEngineers\Mods)
3. Open the copied mod files with a text editor of your choice. The shield stats will be in Data\Scripts\NerdShields\ShieldDefinitionsTemplate.cs, modify these to achieve the desired result. Stat documentation is contained within the file.
- If you need more examples, Midnight Shield Systems is a mod which implements this framework.
4. Upload your modified mod, which can be done through the Space Engineers mod list in any world by selecting the mod and hitting Publish.
