Soooo...Clan mechs are coming out soon. The thing is, my Mechlab is already pretty cluttered as it is. I have a decent number of IS mechs (25ish) but I don't want to get rid of them. I want my Mech list to grow, not shrink!

However, I'm undoubtedly going to be spending most of my time in Clan mechs for the foreseeable future. Gotta XP all those Mechs up! Gotta try out all those builds! So, I think it would be rather handy to have a way to filter my Mechlab based on Clan or Inner Sphere. I want to be able to see only my Clan mechs or only my Inner Sphere mechs. That way I'm not fumbling around as much trying to find the Mech I want.

TL;DR Please add a Clan mech filter!

Yes, yes, yes! We need this bad. Some people have over 100 'Mechs, and they're just about to get another 24 give-or-take dumped into that pile.

On that note, how about putting a bunch of effort into the UI now?

Incidentally, what ever happened to the smurfy upgrade that was supposed to be coming up?

Yeah my mech menu is about to explode, especially with all these trial mechs.

Prob the same thing that happened to maps - they can't sell that.

I miss the quick access bays... those four slots for your four most used mechs.

Yes we need more ways to filter mechs.
I wish I had a way to favourite mechs.

I also want both of these things as well, but I've at least seen those come up in other topics over the past couple of weeks. I don't remember seeing such a topic about Clan mechs, though (very possible I missed it if there was one), so I figured I'd start this one :huh:

People have been asking for a way to filter trials for god knows how long, even when there were just 4.
Not sure there's any hope of a Clan/IS filter.

It wouldn't even be hard, just a few lines of code (they already have it for sorting into the tabs, just need to add a few extra parameters on a tick box)

One in options 'only show Trial Mechs in Trial tab', then on on top of the window with 'Clan' and 'IS', so you can show only the ones you want.

UI 2.0 comes with filter options (buttons), which are non-functional right now. When they come around to enabling them, then there might be more options to filter Mechs.
