NewShieldVariants

Two new variants of shield generators, one featuring high hp with low regen, and another providing low hp with a high regen rating.

The two new variants are labelled "high capacity" and "regenerative".

High capacity shields generally provide x3 increased maximum shield hit points, but a halved rate of regeneration.

Regenerative shields provide roughly 25% less maximum shield hitpoints when compared to vanilla shields, however regeneration rates are increased by roughly 5 times.

For example:

Original MK1 Shield Values:

Small Shield hitpoints = 50
Medium Shield hitpoints = 125
Large Shield hitpoints = 300

Small Shield regeneration rate = 0.50
Medium Shield regeneration rate = 1.25
Large Shield regeneration rate = 3.00
