<!--If you want to make the template wider to fit another planet, remember to shorten it by moving stuff in General, Corporations, and Major Factions up into the same line whenever there's room. Also, both the width directly below this line and the Width at the start of the table need to be adjusted to the same number. Then, all the cell widths need to be adjusted.-->

So you’ve been tasked with setting the shields, and you have no idea what to do, huh? What are these shields and why should we care? It’s important to understand first off, that there are two types of shields involved. We’ll touch on what each type does, so you have an idea of their use.  
<!--Whatever you do, don't touch this section, unless you know what you're doing. Touching it wrong will break the whole template.-->

With that said, let’s get to what we’re going to need to set up the shields, and where they’re stored.

== Tools of the Trade: What you’ll need to set up the Hull and Bubble Shields, and where can you find it? ==
[[Category:Lore]]
 
[[Category:Pages]]
Shields are now automatically set up on the surface, and simply require wrenching down and configuring, so walk up to the surface via the main elevators, and head to just below the garden, through the blue doors.
 
[[File:SetupShields-ShieldRoom.png]]
 
== Setting up the Shield Generators ==
 
*Step 1: Ensure both the generators and both the capacitors are bolted down to the floor. Use the wrench to bolt them down if they're not.
 
*Step 2: Click on both capacitors, and set them to click the [Activate] button. Additionally, if danger is imminent, set the charge rate higher; make sure the engine can take it. The maximum is 400000 W.
 
[[File:Shieldguide24.png]]
 
[[File:Shieldguide25.png]]
 
*Step 4. Set the settings of the shield generators properly. The Coverage Radius (restart required) for '''both generators''' should be 100m. Use the “<font color=blue>+++</font>” button to quickly raise it to the maximum. The Charge Rate for '''both generators''' should be 0.3 Renwick/s. Use the “<font color=blue>++</font>” button to raise it up by one point (the default is 0.2 Renwick/s). Finally, the Maximum Field Strength for '''both generators''' should be 3 Renwick. Use the “<font color=blue>[min]</font>” button, followed by two presses of the “<font color=blue>+</font>” button to set it properly. The settings are shown correctly below.
 
'''''Default Setup'''''
[[File:Shieldguide27.png]]
 
'''''Correct Setup'''''
[[File:Shieldguide28.png]]
 
These settings allow for a low strength field that covers almost all of the station.
 
In the unlikely event that you have a specific area that needs shielding, you can unwrench the capacitor and shield, move them to the danger zone, and engage them there. If you are doing this, it's suggested to set the "Maximum Field Strength" to max, and the coverage radius to a relatively low value.
 
Congratulations! The shields are now properly set up for an emergency. Remember to leave them <font color=red>Offline</font> unless there’s a need for them, as they drain massive amounts of power.
