MechShieldReminder is a RimWorld mod that provides tactical awareness by notifying the player when projectile interceptor shields (such as High-shield and Low-shield buildings) go down for recharging and when they come back online.

Features

  • Notifications:
  • Receives a letter when a shield drops (Charging or Cooldown).
  • Receives a notification when a shield is fully recharged and active again.
Universal Compatibility: Automatically detects any ThingDef that uses CompProjectileInterceptor. This means it works with:
  • Vanilla Shields: High and Low Shields
  • Modded shields: Ones that utilize the standard interception component.
Multi-Map Support: Monitors shields across all active maps simultaneously. • Performance Optimized:
  • Uses a throttled check (runs every 250 ticks) rather than every tick to ensure little impact on TPS.
  • Includes automatic hash cleanup to prevent memory leaks from destroyed objects.

Compatibility

  • Save Safe: Can be added or removed mid-game without issues.
  • Mods: Compatible with any mod that adds shields using the vanilla CompProjectileInterceptor class.
