There are two definitions that control when a spaceborne object starts repairing itself:
STATION_SELF_REPAIR_TIMER_DAYS - controls ship and station repair timer (blame Paradox for such a nonindicative name)
STARBASE_SELF_REPAIR_TIMER_DAYS - controls starbase repair timer

Setting them both to 0 should fix the problem. I've already posted a fix here: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1437765183

Thank you!

nia727 the used mechanics to get the shield regeneration in combat has been purged from the game.

up please

I appreciate your share of thoughts and feelings, but this is the wrong place, unfortunately.

I hope someone from Paradox reads this…great job, guys. I would have continued playing Stellaris for years, buying up all your DLC, but nope…not now. You killed the modding community, and therefore killed a great game. I'm out, and unless you miraculously manage to undo this collossal mistake in time to revive the community, then I won't ever be coming back, nor ever spending another penny on ANY Paradox game again. Ever.

Ugh. It looks like several people have already discussed creating a Script Extender for Stellaris, but they gave up before they even began, because of what a pain Stellaris actually is to mod for…largely because of how much $h!t they hardcode into the game! This just makes me even further disappointed and frustrated with Paradox. They created a great game, but with some minor oversights, which were quickly (but probably not easily) fixed with some mods. Then they make some changes, making modding even harder, but yet the community manages to keep the game strong with even better mods. Then Paradox really screws the pooch, by going full-retard and crippling an otherwise good game, with hardcoded garbage preventing the community from fixing the feces they just threw straight into the fan.

Can't say for sure. Depends on what commands and variables the script extender implements, my guess.

I talked to some others about this, who suggested that maybe a script-extender, or some other kind of third-party modding support structure, might be able to get past the stupidity introduced by v2.0. If something like that exists for Stellaris, could it help revive your work?

As far as I can tell. I will try my best to figure it out, but it seems to be hardcoded now.

Wait, wut. Are you seriously saying that there is now NO WAY at all, to make shields/armor regenerate at all times, regardless of combat??
If that's the case, then I really have no desire to play Stellaris whatsoever.

2.0 is here. See description. I'm sad, but can't change it. Bye shields!

This mod is just great. Been using it since day one. Thank you!

One point niiiiiiiine

I'm actually not sure if it is a bug or just an oversight, but I wanted it fixed so... I did it. :)

You're welcome though. Nice to know people like it.

I didn't even know this was a problem until I payed close attention to my ships (while being facerolled by the enemy). I was "shield tanking" but no love. You are a scholar and a gentleman, sir. My gratitude for fixing this bug. It is a bug, right?

If it isn't a bug, someone is a profound idiot. It is a bug though, right?

Right?

You're welcome. :)

I just gotta say, that no matter what selection of mods I choose to play with in any given play of Stellaris, I ALWAYS include this one. Great job an an excellent, and in my opinion - necessary - mod. Major kudos!

thx
is a good mod^^

Shields up!

pls Update for the new Version
THX

Returned to 1.6.X due to popular demand until 1.7 is released...

Still works with 1.6.2 btw

1.7.X
Now with more free beer.

Thanks!

1.6.X
Should be compatible now with coming hotfixes...

Thanks!

Shields up!
1.6.0

Update for 1.6 coming?

Nope, they don't.
They lack the appropiate variable set to allow regeneration in the files.

If you test it with say two battleships loaded with shields and only one of them get the shield capacitor, as both will have only a low DPS weapon, you can see the one with the shield capacitor regenerate shield hitpoints while the one without capacitor won't. Not even one point. Oh and the one with the shield capacitor will win, even with only one shield installed, no matter how many shields the other one has installed...

Try it yourself but make sure you don't use the "attackallfleets" command line, as the ships may count as not in combat. Use two different empires to test it.

Aren't you misunderstanding basic shield regeneration in battle with passive increased shield regen out of it ? Cause I am pretty sure shields do regen in combat, and at rates they are supposed to.

You're welcome. :)

Thanks for explaining that. Love this mod it's really helpful!

And to clarify: Shields without the capacitor will never regenerate in combat. Unless you use this mod. ;)

Not at all. Shield capacitors give a huge 50% bonus to overall shield regeneration.

In vanilla, they "activate" the in-combat-shield-regen aswell, thus making shield capacitors a necessity for every shielded ship. You had to research them asap.

This mod only activates the in-combat-shield-regen for every shield generator (even the low Deflector Mk I). Shield capacitors still give their huge 50% bonus, but aren't a necessity for shielded ships any longer. They are an option, you are able to delay the research or even use other modules like the evasion stuff from the fortress .

So this makes the capacitors pointless? Or it makes it even better for regen on top of regen (wasn't it already doing that)?

Updated for 1.5.1. Have fun.

Updated for 1.5.0, post bugs if you find them, testing didn't show any though. :)

Thank you for reminder, wasn't sure when Utopia would hit live. Working on it.

Update?

Updated for 1.4.1

No problem. Thanks for the speedy update!

Updated for 1.4.0 but was compatible.
Unfortunately still needed.

Thx for info, didn't notice as I'm not playing Stellaris at the moment.

Didn't notice the update, will look into it.

Still any need for this in 1.4? And/or is it compatible?

Btw: Even though shield rechargers (how they are called now) have received an update in 1.3.2, they still activate the overall shield regeneration in combat. I still do not understand why the developers of the game keep them so mandatory and thus overpowered in comparison to a fleet without shield rechargers.
Well, have fun with the polished rechargers though, they kick ass. :)

Updated for 1.3.2

Updated for 1.3.1

Yay! Love this mod, thank you!

Updated for 1.3.0
