So, anyone of you who has read Dune, by Frank Herbert, will account for the awesomeness of the shield technology employed by the characters in his books. For those of you not familiar with them, Dune's shields only allow things in that go below a certain speed and, because of that, combat in Dune takes very subtle technique to master. My question is: with the new features available in Build 23 or, the current build, would there be a possible way to create a shield that allows things to enter that go below a certain velocity? This kind of shield would most ideally be used to block a long range assault on your brain from a distant assailant.

Yes, the principle is easy. I'd say max 10 lines. Unless you want it to be a helddevice which doesn't work in B22 at least. Dunno about 23.

Dune is great, just finished reading it.
The shield idea is nice, but I think its only possible with Lua. (This is the part where some awesome dude (Grif, Zalo...) comes along and proves me wrong)
I have made something close, but its very laggy and does the opposite, it allows fast moving things to go through and stops the slow ones. (its also doesn't work on MOPixels and MOSPs)

Edit: got ninja'd... whatever.

Would you mind (Piipu that is) making a device like that to attach to a brain?

Its very simple, if I had the time I'd do it now. (So you can attach it to a brain when Build 23 comes out)
It would work in a special scene now though.

Easiest way of doing it is making the brain actor itself do the shield stuff. But here's the code for B22:

Oops, sorry it's 11 lines
Edit: Copypaste to the beginning of any luaed scene to make the standard brain case have the shield. Change the actor.PresetName == "Brain Case" to actor.PresetName == "Brain Robot" to make it work with the brain bot.
