It's been ages since the last time I played it.
Thing is , if you get in the wrong direction , the shield will be between 
your beam and the generators , thus being impossible to pop them.
I guess the blue side is the right one , since the red one is for outgoing 
traffic.
Not so sure though , give it a try.
