Halo Energy Shield (v1.1 update)

Description
This addon replicates the shield system from Halo serie, with sounds and visual effects.

This also comes with a bunch of customization that can be found in the options tab of the spawn menu.

Sangheili update
First big update of this addon adds an Elite shield that can be chosen by each player, colorable shield and a health regeneration system.
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/changelog/2804418818

How does it work?
As long you have shield (indicated by the suit value) your health doesn't take any damage. After not taking damage for 5 seconds (by default) the shield will regenerate.

The shield damage has been recalculated to take the same amount damage as the raw damage.

Addons integrations
Synthetik Hud and Perfect Dark Zero HUD have a shield mode and indicates the time before the shield recharges.



Addons incompatibility
Of course any addon that interfere with the player armor behavior will produce unexpected results (armor regeneration or damage scaling), so be sure to don't have any addon related to player's armor (or HEV suit if you like)

Planned extra features
  • Elite shield visual/sound effect selectable by player
  • ODST "stamina" with client visual and sound effects
  • Some Halo HUD as a separate addon projects

Heyo!! I have a server I'm in that I want to be the only person with an energy shield, so that not the entire server has a spartan shield. Is there a way to do that?

hi, can i make a modified version of this for my halo rp on helix?

Really do hope, one day, that most of the features listed do happen, more so the ODST stamina system, that'd be pretty dope, not even gonna bring up the spv3 hud that was showcased a few times in the authors yt channel, not even sure if thats still even a thing

for some reason the shield dose not work at all when an npc shoots me with a hit scan weapons it just only hits my health not the shield. But every other damage type works just fine tho at first it worked just fine for a while the one day it just stopped working dose anyone know how to fix this problem?
