What Does This PR Do
Meteors now appear at the edge of the map (beyond the buildable range), rather than so close they can bypass shield satellites.
Emagged shield satellites are now clever and shoot down simulated meteors.
Shield sats inside a crate now report the crate's position on the control map, rather than the corner of the map.
Why It's Good For The Game
Makes the shields work better, emagged sats not tell on themselves, and fixes a bug.
Testing
Spawned meteors. They flew normally, but from the map edge.
Threw meteors at emagged and non-emagged shield sats. Emagged ones didn't fire.
Simulated a meteor wave. Emagged sats reported shooting down meteors.
Looked at a crate on the shield sat map.
