The more I play this mech, the more I notice it gets stuck on just any piece of terrain, not sure if it's cause of its abstract shape, or I just need to be careful with this mech.

Another issue, not sure if it is just me, if I am alt-tabbed on full-window mode and on the other screen, and I go back to MWO game screen, the Bushwhacker fires continuously, mind you I use the MMB to zoom in as the button of choice to reactivate the screen from alt-tabbing.

No other Mech has given me such issues.

I would assume its the same, its got a decent amount of odd 'protrusions' that are unlike many of the other mechs currently in the game. The only others I can really think of in their size that would share this issue would be the oblong nose of the crab. It seems like the issue is collision coupled with the size/viewing distortion of your own mech (i.e. light mechs look tiny from your view as an assault but normal as a light) causing issues with the player judging the size of their own mech in relation to the distance of the terrain/objects.

I'm theorizing though as I haven't actually gotten to pilot the Bushwacker yet, got a few other mechs I want to pick up first.
