As frequently mentioned in the forum, proper sorting is a general weakness of the MWO GUI as seen by various examples: E.g. in the Mechlab, the sorting of the Mist Lynx in tab "All" is B/Prime/C where as in tab "Light" it is C/B/Prime.

Now while such examples are just careless design but not really an issue, other sorting problems are. E.g. when assigning weapon groups in the Mechlab, the sorting of weapons usually looks ok. If taken into a match however, this sorting order is completely messed up - especially when it is a mech with 10+ weapons (like e.g. a Nova).

Now as managing loadouts and weapon groups is an essential task in MWO, could you please
  • let the players sort their weapons in the Mechlab "Weapon Groups" dialogue (e.g. with "move up/move down" arrows), and
  • preserve this sorting order when the mech is taken into a match.

Thanks!

Now THIS I can wholeheartedly agree with. Organization is one of my weaknesses, and seeing disorder in my MechLab is just like having a terrible itch you cannot scratch. :blink:

Also agreeing that the sorting of 'Mechs in the MechLab list is goofy and could use a fix when it is convenient for those who are responsible for such things. c;
