Base balance and other such matters

[Hidamari]

Hidamari, the shield turns off automatically after 1-16 minutes. It should be fine.

have you ever had a transport under attack by a cloud of fighters for an entire 16 minutes without exploding? 16 minutes is a long time when you are waiting for it to pass.

and what then? the shield goes down and comes immediately back up when they shoot it again, thats another 16 minutes?

even looking at the not under seige cenario, somebody at random comes and shoots the base, and goes away, ok you come along and want to dock with your cargo, you now have to sit and wait because there is nobody around to turn it off.. how annoying is that.
