Hi there,

the problem is about missiletubes that are placed in the same torso. When you look at for example the Highlander-chassis, there are 1 LRM20 and 1 SRM6 located in the left torso. While the tubes of the LRM20 are placed in the right location during modification, they switch the location with the SRM6-tubes after switching between the HGN-chassis and anything else and only show 10 tubes.

Is there a workaround for this? It may seem trivial, but can mean a world of difference since after "mal-switching" the tubes it becomes a 2-volley LRM10 which is more vulnerable to AMS and due to the longer time it takes 2 waves to impact it can mean a target has already moved behind cover when wave 2 comes in.

Cheers
Nait
