Hull too heavy for [...]

Hey guys,

I've been trying to understand the whole concept of Mass in this game for a while, but i'm at a complete loss. I do not understand the specifications of the modules (yes i've been playing a lot of this game)...

Right now, i have a Type7 which i've loaded with cargo (sold the original shield). but whatever i do, i cannot put a single shield generator back on. The "hull" of the ship is always "too heavy". I've tried many configurations now, but i have no idea how this works... (?!). I've never had this problem with other ships (Viper, Cobra, ASP, Type6...).

What am i missing here?

That pic just shows your slots are all full .Also they may not have a suitable sized shield for sale where you are and without a pic showing what shields you are looking at ......Should be size 5 or6 as standard I think.ps it doesnt fit in the life support slot
pps the heavier your mass/larger the ship the bigger shield needed to protect it

E: D Shipyard only shows class 4-6 shield generators as being usable on the type 7 (it comes with a 4E by default) so if you want to fit something smaller you're probably out of luck. You'll have to sacrifice one of those 16T cargo racks if you want shields.
