Feature: Import and Export Mechuild configurations from the MWO game client to a webside based mech configurator (like http://mwo.smurfy-net.de/ ), and vice versa.
This way, we User, can easily share Machbuilds between each other. Ether, in side the game itself (game lobbie chat) or through the Forums.
Of course this Feature has to be done with the cooperation of the web side owner/admins. I dont know how far the webside owner are willing to cooperate or invest work into such a feature.
Maybe PGI itself can start to make his own little Mechbuild Webpage for this feature?
How to realize:
-the User can build a Mech as usal in the MWOclient/website
-on a click of a button, a code is been generated that contains the information of the Mech build. This code is showed in a text window.
-> something like a ~20-60 digit (hex) code. (Let us call it "MWO MechBuildCode, MBC") This code contains all information about the mech type, heatsinks, weapons, etc.
-this code can be copy&pasted (from the windows clipboard) into MWOclient/website into a specified text field.
something like a "MBC input text window"
-The MWOclient/website detects and shows the Mech configuration from the Mech Code on its own surface (mechlab/webpage)
-in the MWOClient: The MWOClient detects the Mech and its configuration and shows it in the Mech Lab.
-Till now its only in the show mode. The User can now apply this configuration to a existing Mech that he OWN.
-If purchases are necessary to complete this imported Mech Configuration (e.g. weapons needed), a pop-up window appear -> e.g. "do you want to spend 1.234.567 C-Bills for this config?"
