Description
<<Current Script Version 1.7.6a May 2024>>
This script displays your ships shields as a % and/or visual bar to an LCD display. It works with both DarkStar's Defense Shield Mod and Cython's Energy Shields. It is VERY easy to edit/customize and will soon have an updated beginners step by step video tutorial on how to set it up correctly.

Current Version Features:
-Works with Ash Like Snow's Defense Shield Mod (Formerly DarkStar's)
-Works with Cython's Energy Shields Mod
-Works with both shield mods on the same ship.
-Cockpit Shield Displays
-Horizontal Shield Images 0-100%
-Vertical Shield Images 0-100%
-Arched Shield Images 0-100%
-Corner LCD text display.
-Corner LCD rainbow display.
-Corner LCD shield display.
-Text / Shield Per Second shield display.
-Text / Shield Per Second, and Text Bar shield display.
-Multiple LCD's on the same grid with the same name display the same Shield.
-CRB and CCB modes support the center ceiling display of the MA Heavy Bridge Mod. (Was removed - Re-added in 1.7.6a

Bugs:
-Currently Images display very slow and will lag way behind your actual shield. We are working on a fix for this.

Troubleshooting Common Issues:
-Make sure your LCD is named in the correct format. Examples [Shield LCD:THYA-C] or [Shield LCD:BTS]
-Edit the script then save and re-run it.
-Delete the script in the programming block and reload the stock script.
-Load a new world with only the shield and graphics mods. Some other mods may conflict with the script.
-If you are using the "Shield with better hit sounds" version you may encounter a "Named Block Not Shield Generator" error in the programming block. We are currently looking into this issue. For now, I suggest you do not use it.
-If you are a server operator DO NOT subscribe the server to this script. It will cause numerous issues. Each user must subscribe to this script individually.
-If you are still having issues please contact me.

Does this script also work with Tiberius' "Deflector Shields" mod? The mod functions very similarly to Cython's in that its a skin shield so I assume it should work or at least only need slight modification but I don't know.

ok, i feel like a COMPLETE idiot for posting this, but i post it for the sake of others in the future that may have fallen into the same hole i fell into. .......I forgot to add the THYA graphics pac into my mods list........i hope others can learn and avoid my mistake!

I have done more digging and banging my head on the wall, i have found out so far that adding [Shield LCD: to the name is the right way to go. but any name with "THYA" in it just wont respond. if you add
[Shield LCD:TDS]
[Shield LCD:TDL]
[Shield LCD:BTS]
[Shield LCD:BTL]
[Shield LCD:CTD]
[Shield LCD:CRB]
[Shield LCD:CCB]

all these work for me i have tested and re tested. but as soon as you try to use THYA name it breaks.. i dont have it all solved yet. but this is what i have so far.

I'll have to check it out, shouldn't be any different than any other multi-screen block
{H.K.}Warlama 21 Nov, 2024 @ 6:13pm 
hello all i have a question. im trying to get the shield info to display on the middle screen of the "console module block" that released with the signals DLC. i have tried every witch way to get this to work, but to no success, i know its gotta be a simple fix. but im in no way geared as a programmer or a genius in any way. and im really struggling with this, could someone help me resolve this problem, it would be much appreciated!

I know others have already requested support for Deflector Shields so i am commenting to add in my support for that as well

@JTurp We need your help making this this mod work with Deflector Shields if possible.
