Yup same thing happened to me I read the doc activated it moused over one of my fleets turned it off then when they got into a battle with other ships after 5 min I notice the same amount of ships checked them and saw they had 5000 shields FTW? also pirates on another planet were 5000 shields then i went to the drain shields and moused over the unit by my planet and they started blowing up then i noticed mine were too checked mine and lo and behold my shields were drained
Same here. When its on, no matter if its existing ships or new ones that show up from the enemy minutes later, everyone has the max settings. Also wondering about the number of pirates that show up (single player, small scenerio). Talk about overkill. Different issue though...
Update: I figured it out. Boy, you have to be very careful when using these features. You can be selecting ships or planetary objects and suddenly another race or pirate will show up, your panel jerks upward, and suddenly your enhancing the enemy ships. Would not recommend using this in combat situations either!
