I have been looking at a few ships and I see this a lot but I am not sure why. A lot of the ships I downloaded to have a look at are built with a bunch of shield caps, and shield supply beams, but have not a single shield recharge block. I am not sure how it makes sense to transfer all your shields to another ship when you have no way to regenerate them yourself. Is there a reason behind this I have missed?
Ships with shield supply beams but no sheild recharge.

Those are definitely old ships before the weapons update. The old BB and Heatseaker missiles turn into Shield supply beams and I think power supply beams? Correct me if I'm wrong. That would also explain the lack of shield recharge.
well I am sure it is a shield supply beam because I transferred 10% to another ship I was shoot at to see how good the weapons are. However, I can say that yes it was an old ship for sure I have been looking at some of the old ships just going through old fleet lists to get a peek at what has already been done. But now it does make sense, because i was also looking at some of the old texture packs and that was an omgwtfit moment, all my windows turned into missile launchers (texture wise, not literally) and a bunch of other weird stuff. That was before I looked it up on the boards and saw only the default and dirtyspace textures where at the time up to date with the game.
I believe I understand now what I have been seeing thank you for clearing this puzzle up for me.
