RT Solar Flare Shield

Description
Researchable (RT Mods research tab) magnetic shield to protect colony electronics from EMI and solar flares. The device heats up considerably while engaged, so plan accordingly!

Does not require a new colony to add or remove (might throw a one-time error).

Texture by LastXsile.

@Casval Zem Daikun: Turn off "auto-scram on solar flare" on the reactor.
Casval Zem Daikun 11 hours ago 
Is there any plan to make this work with Rimatomics? It works fine for everything else but a Solar Flare still causes the reactor to go offline. Not sure if that'd be on your end or the Rimatomics end.

Also, the text says , when dormant it uses puny energy but when the flare happens it switches to tremendous power consumption. I built one and it uses 50W ,I m waiting for a solar flare to see if the problem that others mentioned exist, but I doubt it

@Chromium: Correct.

Solar flares messages will still happen right? just not affecting your colony if you have a device like this

Frak you Void, I have an answer for your artificial solar flares:buzzed:

It's 50W for my modlist too. Was an easy fix for me using RIMMSqol to put it back to 25000W. I don't think I have any mods that directly affect power other than VFE-power as well.

@John doe: I have a vague memory of someone else reporting something like this. Wasn't able to reproduce the issue; we'll have to go through your mod list and the logs if you want to diagnose it.

Hi, not sure if I've done something wrong, but it is working as intended - nothing is disabled during a solar flare - except it's only drawing 50W. The only power mod that I have installed in VFE - Power.
