The mech lab widget does NOT recognise heat scale issues if you add weapons from the same heat scale group.

Example

2 x PPC = No warning

3 x PPC = Warning

2 x PPC + 1 x ERPPC = No warning

Also tested with large lasers / ER large lasers.

Needs to be sorted ASAP.

hm, I thought it will be shown in the weapon group screen. There it would be great when you can see how much damage and how much heat the group make (and also show/highlight the ghost heat)

Hey, cut them some slack. At least there is now ONE in-game acknowledgement that "ghost heat" actually exists, even if the notification is buggy.

same thing with srm6 and srm4... 4 times srm6 = warning
3 times srm6 + 1 x srm4 = no warning

I bet the guy that programmed in the warnings didn't have a great grasp of how ghost heat works because he's been too busy coding to actually play the game.

That's how convoluted the system is.
