Shannon's Journal Discussion Thread, Vol. 8

[Shannon]

This is what I have in mind to build next. 
The goal is something I can build quickly to minimize distraction from working on the 6G-Beta skeleton script.

Option A) Aura of Love with DRS, as requested by Keith.

Option B) DRS stand alone, upgraded to 5.11G

Option C) A hormone optimizer.

What do you guys think?

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but the idea I currently have is that when 6G is released, all the stand alone shields will be updated so they can be choosen to work TOGETHER with any other subs. So any other sub won't have an auric shield itself, and if you want one, you should purchase both and use them together.

That's what I understood it was one of 6G advantages. If that's the case, I wouldn't purchase any auric shield just before 6G is released.
Reading this now, I', doubting if I understood it correctly. Can you clarify on this topic please?

This is a good point, but here is more information to clarify things for you.

The design of the 6G skeleton script is in fact aimed at having no shielding integrated so that you can choose a shield of your preference for use with it.  Here are the considerations in play.

1. I'm not sure that will work yet.  I have tried to design things so that it will work, but I cannot run it through the models and get a sufficiently confident answer until 6G-Beta or later is finished being developed.
2. Once 6G Final is developed, there is an instant backlog of programs to build.  Will any shields be among them?  Maybe... maybe not.  Don't know yet.
3. If not, it may be several months before any shields get built in 6G, at least. 
4. Some people may need a stand alone DRS for the time being regardless, if the 5.75G version isn't strong enough for what they need.
