Arena Sheild Fails

It seems not only can you pass through the shield at a certain point (not the entrance) but in many points weapon fire (kenetic) can pass through.

Ah yes... the collision system there is horribly buggy, and has been that way for ages...
I'd call for a total rebuild of it: talk to alterecco: his battle-zone mod suffers from related problems, and Atarlost found more problems with custom ships being used with that collision system, and I found more holes and ways to get stuck/get through, even when layered (like in bz)

To support that i did find that walls over a certain thickness avoided this problem, but by that time I had already built the walls in bz, and was not about to put myself through that again. I wonder what George will come up with in 1.0 (as far as I understand the arena will get an overhaul)
