Reboot/Repair no longer restores shields?

[Jpotter]

Did I miss this in the patch notes? Just rebooted/repaired twice after setting my module priority and powering down the shields to make sure..... shields didn't come back at all, was stopped in normal space both times.

Are you using E-Grade boosters?

Are you using E-Grade boosters?

Why would that make a difference? I thought that just used to slow down the recovery rate beyond 50%?

No but jumping in and out of SC recharge ur shields at 100%.

Does it? I haven't noticed this, is this new? I am sure it didn't used to do this - but perhaps I am mis-remembering...

Reboot/Repair to bring shields back online at 50% was working fine for me last night, however this is not the case if you are underfire or in danger, not too sure about the latter in danger bit but I think it's correct.

Still works - a wing man of mine did this last night A-OK!

There was a bug in the Beta where reboot / repair didn't restore shields if you were using E-grade boosters. I figured it was because the other apparently-bug where E-grade boosters were changed to provide a flat 60MJ of "shield reinforcement" (like hull reinforcement) in addition to their 4% boost, but the issue could go deeper than that.

I was just docked in a station and my shields refused to recharge even there.

Unfortunately its true.
The game right now is humped.
