Open ST_Equip.ini
Adjust the Regeneration Rate.
The higher the rate, the faster they regenerate.
Here's one of the shields from the current mod:
[ShieldGenerator
nickname = shield01_mark01_lf
ids_name = 263789
ids_info = 264789
DA_archetype = equipment\models\st\li_refractor_shield.3db
material_library = equipment\models\li_equip.mat
HP_child = HpConnect
hit_pts = 4000-------------------------How many HP to blow the shield off your ship.
explosion_resistance = 0.500000
debris_type = debris_normal
parent_impulse = 20
child_impulse = 80
volume = 0.000000
mass = 3
regeneration_rate = 60--I use 10% of the "max_capacity" rating.
max_capacity = 600------How many HP to drop your shield.
toughness = 25------------I use about 40% of regeneration_rate.
hp_type = hp_fighter_shield_special_1
offline_rebuild_time = 1-below this and battles are to hard.
offline_threshold = 0.150000
constant_power_draw = 30
rebuild_power_draw = 4
shield_type = S_Graviton01
shield_collapse_sound = shield_offline
shield_rebuilt_sound = shield_rebuilt
shield_hit_effects = 0, gf_li_shield01
shield_hit_effects = 100, gf_li_shield02
shield_hit_effects = 500, gf_li_shield03
separation_explosion = sever_debris
LODranges = 0, 20
lootable = true
Also...
If you set "offline_rebuild_time" to less than 1, they'll never go down, and battles will take hours!
(You've gotta have mega-weapons to damage the armor.)
AND...
The higher the "Toughness" number, the less likely you'll get the shield blown off of your ship.
(Literally!)
To change the NPC's shields, you have to edit the Loadout.ini's in the ship's folder.
Watch your 6!
