Vanya Shield Mod

Author of the Vanya Shield Mod: mlie

Vanya Shield Mod adds Vanya’s shield belts to RimWorld: personal energy shield devices designed to block incoming projectiles and energy attacks, expanding both player and faction access to advanced defensive gear.

Vanya Shield Mod Features

  • Adds single-person energy shield belts that block fast-moving projectiles and ranged energy attacks.
  • Does not block melee attacks or shots fired from point-blank range.
  • Prevents firing past touch range while the shield is active.
  • Includes multiple shield variants with different behaviors and stats.
  • Improved resistance to heat and EMP damage.
  • Shields no longer break instantly from EMP damage.
  • Some shield variants deactivate when their energy is fully exhausted.
  • Shields are not affected by extinguisher damage.
  • Supports spacewalk usage with specific shield variants when using SOS2.
  • Compatible with the Kurin race through dedicated patches.
  • Mass-produced shields are used by vanilla factions.
  • The Empire can equip shields, making certain enemies significantly tougher when Royalty is active.
  • Pirate bosses may spawn with especially powerful shield variants.

Compatibility notes

  • Two shield belts include Royalty-specific stats that are only applied if the Royalty DLC is active.
  • Translation file errors have been fixed.
  • Preview images may include clothing and hairstyles that are display-only and not part of the mod.
  • If you encounter errors, try running Vanya Shield Mod with only its requirements enabled.
  • If the issue does not occur, add your other mods back until it appears again.
  • Always post your log using the Log Uploader.
  • For best support, use the Discord channel for error reporting.
  • Do not report errors by making a discussion thread, as it does not generate notifications.
  • If you have a fix, please post it to the GitHub repository.
  • Use RimSort to sort your mods.
