In the original version of mindustry i really enjoyed the look and feel of how the shield looked from the old game. mostly for me, because it gave me a more realistic effect of how a shield (in a game like this) would look like because instead of a more orange hexagon it was a circular blue bubble shield although in many other instances that me and a few other players (that are my friend's), discussed and decided that we all like a few aspects of the old part of the game that are no longer in the newer version of the game such as the bubble shield and railgun. although i have an idea if you decide to do the bubble shield or shield on how you can do it if you want to you can have it rely on 4 to 8 or 10 key points in order to make the shield work so it has to be boxy or 3 to 10 points so in 8 directions so the points can be triangular and or boxy, you would have tohave it be defended because the shield points would be brittle and have not very much health so they would have to be protected by walls and turrets.and the railgun that was in the the first iteration was amazing it was very long range and had moderate to low damage so it wouldn't be to overpowered and i personally loved these two things from the older version of the game. Thank you in advance if you do decide to do one or both of these. Please add this if not please have someone try to make a mod out of this because im not very good at doing modding stuff for these sort of games.
