Shield Question

I have a question regarding shields and adding a newly created shield to a custom ship in the shiparch.ini. The nickname that is used for the shield_link = seems to come from select_equip.ini and is comletely different from the nickname you use in either st_equip or st_good when you create it. I was wondering where the new nickname in select_equip comes from and how it knows it is your shield? I need to know so I can assign it to my shield_link = so my ship comes with the newly created shield.

Good news is, the Shieldlink has nothing to do with making a ship come with that shield. you can simply copy the arch entry for the eagle, or whatever, and it will work.

to make yourship come with a shield, put it in the package in the goods.ini. Like this:

addon = {whatever shield}, HpShield01, 1

that's all there is to it.
