 Using standard internal and external sensors, the ship's quantum computer can monitor the CFS both at the field and at the generators inside the ship. Due to this, computer can extrapolate the precise energy flow around the ship, even being able to predict where the energy will be redirected to along the CFS, be it radiation or weapons fire. It can also be used to monitor the status of the ship’s shields more precisely than previous methods, to diagnose problems early on, as well as to be used in conjunction with other programs that require the state of the CFS. It should be noted that since this requires sensors at both the field and the generator points of the CFS, it can only be used upon one’s own CFS, not on those of other ships. Using standard internal and external sensors, the ship's quantum computer can monitor the CFS both at the field and at the generators inside the ship.

-The IES can determine the state of the CFS at any given time, and even extrapolate where energy will be redirected to along it. It is not a large jump to use that data to compensate for the CFS’s effects when firing energy weapons. A shot from the ship can be fired upon a pre-calculated point on the CFS, which is moved along the CFS to the desired location. This allows multi- or omni-directional energy weapons, as well as the energy weapons of Power Armor, to accurately target and hit enemy targets while inside of and using the CFS.+The integrated electronics system (IES or [[stararmy:equipment:aies|AIES]] in a Mindy) can determine the state of the CFS at any given time, and even extrapolate where energy will be redirected to along it.

 The CFS is about balance. It can devote its field resources to select tasks. If a ship moves at 20% FTL speed, that leaves it the rest to operate weapons and shielding. If its shielding is at 80%, it can't have much FTL and the capacity of projecting energy beams is lessened. If using some of its power to project beams, then, it dramatically decreases its FTL and shield capabilities. The CFS is about balance. It can devote its field resources to select tasks.

-The ship can also be rendered invisible to scalar radar, aetheric-energy sensors, other forms of detection by using the shield bubble to keep the ship in its own alternate plane of existence. It can also use its scalar fields to simulate that photons and other sensory forms pass through the "empty space" and thus its presence is hidden. When the ship is fully it its bubble plane, it may only use its RDD sensor to monitor normal space; all other sensors will be useless.+The ship can also be rendered invisible to scalar radar, aetheric-energy sensors, other forms of detection by using the shield bubble to keep the ship in its own alternate plane of existence.

-This beam system was first developed in [[.starship_classes:yuumi-class_battleship]] program and has since become a staple of [[stararmy:start|Star Army]] weaponry. The spatial distortion around the ship (the Combined Field System) is used to release condensed potential energy from the [[technology:aether]], the ubiquitous sea of energy. By distorting the shield-space, the origin of the beam can be maneuvered around the field bubble, allowing it to be fired from any point on the field system. The subspace effects of the beam make it naturally piercing to distortion-based shields. Please note that when firing, it substantially weakens the Combined Field System.+This beam system was first developed in [[..:starship_classes:yuumi-class_battleship]] program and has since become a staple of [[stararmy:start|Star Army]] weaponry.

 When the CDD drive is fully devoted to speed, its defensive functions and weapon functions will not function well, or at all, and vice versa. It is important for starship captains to find a good balance. When the CDD drive is fully devoted to speed, its defensive functions and weapon functions will not function well, or at all, and vice versa.
