I keep seeing something about the Archer having health for it's missile bay doors. Where is the source for this information? Also, how will the missile bay doors work? Can this be applied to mechs like the catapult?

When closed, missile bay doors add +10% damage reduction to the component they protect, but they also add a firing delay (for the door opening).

At least, that's what they used to do - apparently, that doesn't apply for the King Crab. It's entirely possible they're fully cosmetic these days.

What's puzzling is that Kintaro's CT missiles still fire with delay even when I leave the bay door open.

Source is from a tweet form Russ about 2-3 months ago. Im still waiting for pgi to confirm this. Few of us tried to get the drunk guys at the last town hall to ask Russ

98% that it's fully cosmetic.
