Summary0002006: Impossible to kill AI Shield Gens located on Dyson Sphere Planet
Descriptionthe AI shield generators should really be given a "switch on capture" ability so that in situations like the current one, where one of the A-level generators has spawned on a Dyson planet, such that players can build and then scrap a command center and still be able to destroy the generator without getting overwhelmed by hostile dyson gatlings.

Or, just prepare a big enough fleet, build a Mk. I command station as far away from the Dyson Sphere as possible, and blast the shield generator to oblivion.

Alternatively, blow the other four to oblivion, and the fifth will follow.

Pretty much what Toll said. It's a challenge, to be sure, but an optional one and totally one that can be overcome if you're determined enough.

Yeah, I know I shouldn't really have said "impossible," but this was also back before it was an optional kind of thing.

On another note, "build a Mk. I command station as far away from the Dyson Sphere as possible" doesn't really matter because Dyson Gatlings can't damage Command-Grade IIRC (Command-Grade multiplier of 0).

The last time I built a station at a Dyson-planet, they sure blew that one up. It was a while ago though... Remember that the dysons that are player-hostile and those that are player-friendly are different though.
