The simple solution would be to provide an option how many columns the mech select window should occupy.
The design itself is very nice. It's just the number of columns that create the annoyance.
Configurability would be good, anyway.
Some people say "OMG I need to see my mech, I'm fine with 4 columns".
Other will say "Screw the mech on the side, I want overview. 8 columns it is!"
Where I come from (celestial Java fields), this would be a matter of seconds.
If they structured and layered their layouting code properly, a matter of minutes even without celestial fields.
Somehow I have the feeling that the PGI answer will be more something like "not doable, would takes days of coding and testing for that feature alone".
