Force Shield and AI Exploit

There is a probability an AI player uses the Force Shield super weapon to defend against a super weapon fired on its base by an enemy player. This also happened when the enemy player was not even allowed to fire the super weapon, maybe because another Lightning Storm was already active at the moment.

If a super weapon was active, a player owning a charged super weapon of the same type could use it and quickly click on all enemy players’ bases to make them use their Force Shield to defend against a super weapon that had its fire sequence aborted, causing them to lose power for a short amount of time.

This easily exploitable bug has been fixed and the AI will now only defend against super weapons that were actually fired.
