Can you mod the AS to be ineffective if the player has shields?

no, unless you give shield generators the master computer ability. but that brings on a whole bunch of other problems, not to mention the fact that you are still AS immune untill that component is killed, not just until your shields are down.

Okay, work around time:

Can a boarding party be given a range?

Boarding happens when your ship is next to the target, and since it involves no actual weapon fire, you cannot alter the distance at which boarding takes place.

However, you may want to put an extended range tracter weapon to be used in boarding attempts. The weapon will pull the target towards the boarders, giving your boarding parties a virtually longer range.

Not even then!! Even a destroyed master computer will protect against AS.
