Shield generators using supplies

[jimbob]

These are questions to which I'd really like answers. Is it possible to test this in simulation (easy), or does one need to run several human controlled races against eachother (tedious).

Not at home, so I can't test this till next week. Anyone else game?

As you are adding ships in the simulator, you can click the "Computer Control" button, and select which races will be computer controlled.

Be warned that if you turn on "Auto" during tactical combat, all the players except for #1 will be set back to AIs, and you can't undo that change until the combat is over.

You should be able to test this in the simulator in Tactical mode; you can right-click a ship to check its current supply level.
