📋 About This Mod
If you like the idea of your Techs being damage in Combat, but dislike the idea that for some reason they still get Damaged even though your Shield is there and your Ship didn't take any damage at all, this mod is for you. Your Techs will only be breaking when your Shield goes down, so until that happen your Techs will be completely protected.
