@elite-dangerous-almanac/core / ships / ShieldGeneratorParams

Defined in: src/ships/shields.ts:80

The shield generator constants a strength calculation needs — all post-engineering.

An OutfittingModule record satisfies this as-is, so a catalogue entry can be passed straight in — the six curve fields and the resistances are exactly what a generator's record carries. optMultiplier is what a Reinforced/Thermic blueprint moves, and optMass what Enhanced Low Power moves. A recipe names those two alone and the four endpoints follow them, so pass the whole moved curve rather than a moved optimum on stock endpoints. FittedModule.effectiveStats carries it already. Every field is optional because the type accepts those records; a generator missing any of the six curve fields cannot be placed on the curve at all, and raises no shield (shieldMassCurveMultiplier returns 0).

A generator that carries all six is held to the curve's shape: every value finite and non-negative, masses strictly ordered minMass < optMass < maxMass (or all equal, for a constant curve), multipliers strictly ordered minMultiplier < optMultiplier < maxMultiplier (or all equal), and equal multipliers wherever the masses are all equal. Anything else is a RangeError rather than a plausible-looking number.
