Can you explain how my proposal is extremely abusable?
With 2 min time-limit on every manual shield off and not allowing anything to dock/undock while the shield is on?
What exactly you find abusable? If the base owners want to use the shield option- it is up to them no-one makes anyone to do anything really, the second part fixes the loophole.
If the base is under attack and some ship is docked on it is logical to lower the shield if you want out,same logic by the vanilla freelancer- you cannot harm the hull of the ships with shield on, you cannot drop any item out of the shield without lowering the shield- giving 30- 40 seconds invulnerable shields for undocking ships is also good option . If you have better ideas how to fix this go ahead. I also want to remind that in next version the bases would have really scary weapon platforms not the water pistols that they have now.
