New Tool: Leaky Shields/Armor simulator.

Got it, thanks.

This is cool. The concept of leaky defenses sounds like it would make the game much more interesting. Although, I guess the 'armor skipping' ability of weapons is usless now, if I understand correctly how leaky armor is implemented. Are there any mods that have decent AI support which use leaky defenses? Perhaps the AI isn't good enough at making repair ships to do this.

Skips armor won't become useless, it will just have a different purpose since it won't trigger the SGFD ability on the leaky shields!

[Fyron]

Skip Armor damage type also does not trigger emissive armor ability. You can bypass non-armor emissive components and leaky shield components (the SGFD part) with such weapons, which brings a whole new sort of usefulness to crystalline shard cannons.

Ah, I see Cool, thanks!

[Atrocities]

Very cool SJ.
