No, it will actually be disabled. I promise.

You're both right.

The shield will be disabled, but you cannot enable it. Worldplate (and meteorsteel) is incompatible with shields.

Though once you get rid of the meteorsteel or worldplate and put on other armor, you have to then enable the shield you have (experience). It won't automatically work again. I chased through 3 systems trying to find a comparable shield, until I pressed . :D

I think were missing the point here.

Dakota disabled his shields (or the meteorsteel did). Thats fine.
BUT Dakota still suffered the Invincible's "Shield Power Surge!" when he was hit with a "shields down" cyberattack. We know you cant use shields and worldship, otherwise you'ld be invincible. The power surge is the problem, not the incompatibillity.

Doh! Now I get it...thanks for explaining it.

You're right: this is a bug. If the Invincible shield is disabled (either manually or because of meteorsteel) the cyberattack should not trigger the "power surge"

I've fixed it in the next version. Thanks!
