Can confirm this is broken - It causes random collisions with things, even if it's not nearby.

I see that this mod is from 2021 and now I see it while browsing mods... but I'm still glad that someone decided to make an "updated og forcefield" mod

Hey, I think your collision issues are back. I use these for my base on mars. When my Rover so much as nudges these forcefields, it explodes into a million pieces and gets sent into the stratosphere.

I hate to be that guy, but any chance of getting a 25 block version? I am planning on a 3 km long capital ship that houses three 600 m ships

Would small grid versions be off the table?

With several models of Forcefields on the workshop I tend to like this one the most. Is it possible though to change the color of open to something other than transparent?

I love the look of having the shields visible. If so I'm sure it's something simple. Apologies if it's been asked already.

@Sargonnas hello sir! any chance you could share the change that fixed the gates?
trying to help fix the Hangar Door mod on the MP server I play on.

basically if we manage it, forcefields*

*ship ones i mean

open = hole
Closed = wall

if you open the force field ships can go through. if the force field is close then they cannot.

if it didn't keep grids from going through i would definitely use this a lot

although it would be too complex

i am seeing corridor forcefields with this though

Thanks man, you made my day

Thank you Sargonnas!!

Hangars should be fixed now.

Ah, okay. Baby comes first. And congratulations!

Move and Baby first. While I really want update. I dont want it before your life requirements. Take care of what need to first then fix mod when can. And congrats on baby! Ive had 4 "well wife technically had them lol" so I know your excitement.. and fears hehe

I am. Just in the middle of a move and a baby on the way. I need to research into what keen changed so I can fix it. It will be fixed though.

I think the mod author isn't working on mods anymore...

Yeah, almost all hangar force field and door mods are broken due to the Contacts update - the doors are flipped and shown on the wrong side of the block or invisible, though they do technically work otherwise, it just looks really weird.
The mods need to be updated by the uploaders, unless Keen patches the game on their end.

Textures are there, just projected 180 degrees around. Field pn/off (open/closed) works normal if the block is turned on. I use about a dozen of these across a small star cluster (wormholes!) and it would be a pain to switch to another mod.

BUG DISCOVERED: The force fields project a blue energy field - on the opposite side of the projectors, and thus it goes through any blocks there. Harmless, but it looks really weird and bad. Please look into it. Also, the force fields start off closed by default.
Same happens with hangar doors, modded or not.
Possibly a problem introduced with the new update and DLC.

most Hangar Door and forcefield mods are broken.... :-( pls fix

What the guy below me said, the forcefields appear inverted during the opposite open/close cycles. Hopefully this gets fixed

The recent update made the texture of the force field disappear. Any chance we can get a fix?

Is there any chance to update this mod? I believe airtightness is gone due to new updates.

I am trying to setup a printer to print a ship that uses this and the blocks keep getting built into the printer head even with a window right in front of the welder. Any ideas about how to prevent this?

Still having issues with the force fields looking pink... Is this possibly a load order issue? Anyone else having this problem?

How do they stand up to damage? Projectiles? Bullets? Explosions? Impacts?

Open Lets you pass, stops air
Closed Stops air and you
Off lets you and air pass

If I recall correctly.

wait what? There is only open close on the item, open you can pass and air pass, close nothing pass you and air. How would it has a third state with only open close option?

Thew shields do block air and allow you through them. They work like doors. So when they are.. I forget what color you can go through. But when different they will act like a wall to you.

Oh got it. Didn't realize that was a side block that doesn't do anything, we don't even need side block. They shouldn't have open close option though.

Ah :(, though that was a pass through field that kept air in but let you go through

How do I tell if they are working or not, I place them, some of them are green, others are purple...
For 2x2, should I use all 2x variant or should I do a 2x2 using just the 1x1 version? For they to work, to I have to have a full square with all blocks being force field?

Good for security force fields, not great for just being a intangible like shao's

Can you add angled blocks? Id love to be able to do 2x1 angle both along the face and along the side of a 2x1 or 1x1, I do know it would be hard to do along the side though.

Nvm

I can't find the corner block for the forcefield

Looked at mods and looked good.

Im more a starwars then startrek guy :-) Plus i have slow internet so i dont do servers. Good luck on it though

Had to slow down because I created a new server and mods for it. You should check it out. Star Trek - The Continuum.

When are your new mods coming out? :-)

Nice :) Thank you for doing that :) Looks way better again :)

Updated Forcefield texture. No longer pink. Looks more like it did originally.

Ours are super bright blue as well. Blindingly so.

Is that update still planned?

Any update in the works for the pink forcefields?

Hey @Sargonnas just a heads up... in addition to the texture issue, it seems that these doors will occasionally suck grids in like a black hole and demolish them (just had it happen a few minutes ago). Was rather impressive lol

Hey Sargonnas, just wanted to check if it's normal that the field itself does not take any damage?
This could be heavily exploited in a pvp situation.
I'll probably limit them somewhat but just wanted to see if you knew.
People are already theorycrafting of building ships out of it xD

I need to fix the texture. I’ll try to get it fixed this week.

Why is my forcefield super bright blue?
