So I've been thinking about how nice it would be to have a blueprint system in this game.
What I mean is this, how frustrating is it when your trying to rebuild a mech that you had set up in the past when your team is waiting on you to drop? Just to find that you dont remember what other mech you left the engine or module you need in.
I propose this. Sell blank blueprints for MC. when you get a load out finished just the way you want it save it to a blueprint. As long as you have all the parts needed in your inventory unequipped it will auto build your desired load out for you with just a click of the blueprint. Just add a tab to the mech lab.

I'd buy blueprints for MC as long as they were cheap, like 10-15 MC the way the P2W consumables are, but I think charging for them is a little greedy. Lots of games let you save several builds/configurations for your ship/gundam/whatever as a built-in feature everyone gets for free.

I think a loadout save is something everyone should have access to for free.

Yeah I would love to see it for free also, I was just thinking if the company could make money from the idea that it might get implemented sooner.

Don't give into the recent "yo pgi, you know how this should already be in the game? How about I pay you more for it?"
Let them give into the spam of suggestions, maybe one day they'll give us a neat birthday present.

Saving a blueprint would be awesome. Def save time on building if you have a 'stock' build you prefer over the general ones. I'd pay a few MC for the ability to save builds for my mechs. Esp if I don't play a specific mech for a few weeks.

What about Blueprint Slots? So, each mech comes standard with two slots that you can save a variant in. For MC, maybe 10-20 each, maybe more, you can unlock additional Variant slots, on a per chassis basis.

Not to be rude or dissuasive... but there is a type of "Blueprint" system already in the game for some MC. It's called additional mechbays. You can always just buy the additional mechbay and have several copies of a mech for different loadouts. This way, you just switch your mechs, which I imagine probably would be faster to change in the described situation in the OP.
