So, I got careless and lost a lander. Now my lifeform shield is gone and starbase doesn't seem to be selling it anymore.

Am I just SOL in the lifeform shield department, or is there a way to get it back?

I think I might be the only one on GOG playing through this game right now. :)

^^ No I am playing too. I picked it up back in December and I have been playing it ever since! I played a

8-D

Question for you: Are you playing Starflight 1 or Starflight 2?

EDIT: (Removed a previously incorrect answer)
I just tried it on Starflight 1 and it turns out that indeed you can retrieve your TV Lifeform Shield. What you need to do is find your lost Terrain Vehicle. I have attached an example.

Ah, thanks. I figured the tv just disappeared when it ran out of energy.

I was playing starflight 2. At least i was until I read some unlabeled spoilers on starflt.com. I'll try it out if I ever get back to playing the game.
