Hey. As the search engine dont take less the 4 chars i did not find any topic or thread mentioning API.
Anyone knows if there's any API to hack'n'slash upon?

There are rumours of at least one potential API for mech builders but nothing confirmed or concrete.

I would imagine API is close to the bottom of the priority list right now.

All we know so far is from the mechlab Q&A:

Will Merc Corps be able to save and share configurations which are available to all members of that Merc Corp to access, download, and utilise in the configuration of their Battlemech? –John Clavell

[PAUL] This is not something unique to Merc Corps. We want this ability to share builds with the entire community. This will probably be done through the website with the possibility… yes... POSSIBILITY of a public released API for fan sites.

I actually asked about that for the Dev Q&A. Hopefully theyll answer it, it was more geared towards android and iphone apps.

An API would unlikely lead to any form of hacking, you really just can't do anything with an API other than what's it's meant for.
