I think I broke it. [Shields nonfunctional.] - Resolved - Commissar - 03-10-2013
Howdy,
I was flying about on a Prison Liner last night (EDIT: week) and, in the name of decent RP, lowered the shields. I then proceeded to dock, and rename the ship, which all went just fine.
The catch being, that the shields have decided they would rather stay off. Using the /shields command gets me nowhere, besides toggling between the usual shields online/offline message, and I've tried dismounting and remounting the thing.
Anyone else had this problem?
EDIT: Just passed a Lux Liner that seems to have the same problem.
EDIT: Seen it on multiple ships now. Looks to be a server-wide thing.
EDIT: On additional testing, it's not server-wide. Just every single ship I selected on that character is displayed without a shield. Other ships on the same account aren't having any problems.
Further details:
Ship: MV-Contents.May.Differ
Type: Prison Liner
Location: Barrier Gate, Coronado
Screenshots
1. In space.
2. Mounted equipment.
Fix found, kudos to sajjukar.

-reinstalled the whole game and that seemed to fix it all

Try crashing into the sun or.. a planet, I think that when u respawn it can fix itself.

Just tried planetdiving. No luck, I'm afraid. It seems suicide is not the answer. I'm certain there's a message there somewhere. In other news, I'm not picking up shields on any other ships now (player or NPC), and other server-side scripts seem to have stopped working as well, namely /autobuy. The console bounces back the 'OK' message, but it's not replenishing supplies. Buying a new shield hasn't had any effect either.
Strangely, on other ships on the same account everything is working just fine.
So. I'm lost.
The confused ship is MV-Contents.May.Differ, if anyone with magical tech powers is in the mood to help out.
Also, since it seems this is more a specific issue then a proper bug, could a mod kindly nudge this into the 'Help' section?

Any ideas on this? The server restarts don't seem to have changed anything, and I'm still left with a ship that's only marginally more useful then a damp herring.

That's fixed it. Thanks for the help sajjukar, it's much appreciated. That'll teach me to try and play Freeworlds.
