NP, and ok.. well then it looks like your new lab will be another welcome addition! I checked it out, looks great. I like how the pop-ups were working for the quirks. A hover pop-up of stock load out would also be kinda sweet.. *(but i know a lotta data to enter for sure lol)




Ps you might wanna just have the mods lock the old thread for ease of tracking.. But kudos, that site is looking very nice. the search feature is extremely well done.

Thank you! I can pull most of the mech data from the game files so it's not too much of a hassle to get it. Also all the stock loadouts are already in the database i just haven't integrated them into the front-end yet. Will try and find a spot for them in the hover window.

I must say it's pretty awesome. I can think of some nice convenience features. The ability to type in the armor value. Rather than holding the arrow buttons. Also being able to collapse types of weapons and equipment tabs makes it easier to browse them without having to scroll the entire list.

I can get the collapsible lists done within the next day or two, will get that armor feature soon.

Highly impressive stuff. One little quibble: the radio and check boxes can be a bit confusing (I wasn't sure at the start whether the white ones or the black ones were the ones that were selected). A more traditional look (having a circle/check inside the circle/box when it is selected) might work better.

Keep up the great work, I'm sure many will find this useful.

Fixed most of the bugs and added a few of the simpler changes that were requested. A full list:

Spoiler

• Fixed display issues for smaller screens.
  
• Heroes will now show variant name in the hover window (e.g. "AS7-BH" rather than "The Boar's Head"). Names in the picture tiles remain the same.
  
• Changed the ammo colors in the mechlab to contrast with weapons.
  
• Found missing uac10.
  
• Corrected head structure from 18 points to 15 points.
  
• Fixed issue with engine tonnage not updating properly if a previous engine was not first removed.
  
• Removed special variant omnipods
  
• Fixed arctic wolf omnipods showing pods for the battlemech variants
  
• Fixed heat sinks dropped into the CT causing two sinks to be placed.
  
• Fixed display issue for Firefox where selected mech tiles would become highlighted.

the other changes are on their way as mentioned

Thank you for fixing that heatsink bug. It is so much more responsive than smurfy as well as easier to use.

[Aidan Crenshaw]

Here's another easy fix for you:
The Blood Asp BAS-B shows the ecm hardpoint to be in the right torso. It should be in the CT, though, like the BAS-A.

Edit: I see you fixed the hardpoint location. Nice! But now the browser entry for the BAS-B says: ECM NAN, as well as the -B RT omnipod.

I have DHS popping up in arms when adjusting armor in the arm.

Was the item you were mounting before this DHS?

I had the same issue with AC10 ammo. AC10 ammo was the last item I was mounting before adjusting arm armor.

Yes, I had that problem too with ammo. Could be a duplicate of the last item added.

Oh lol an unforseen side effect of a feature I just added, one moment.

[PobbestGob]

Fixed. This is what that feature was:

You can now copy slots by clicking on them. Just needed a slight tweak to prevent weird armor behavior.

[PobbestGob]

Couple bugs submitted through the site that I can't reproduce:

1. equipping stealth armor on locust only adds armor slots to arms and legs, not side torsos
2. can only swap one omnipod without issues, the second is fixed horizontally and cannot move up or down.

I tried in Chrome, Firefox, and with several combinations of builds. Issue in Safari maybe? If anyone also gets this lemme know. Try Ctrl+F5 as well to reload the cache to see if that fixes.

[CygnusX7]

Amazing work. Thank you. Enjoying it very much. Especially a mechs stock quirk information.

Anyway to have endo/FF/LFF display the slots they take up?

[edit] I realize it does tell us how many slots have been used but visually there is nothing on the mech representing those slots being used.

Maybe its really nbd.

I do want to add "dynamic structure/armor slot" at some point. will get to it soon

there is something weird goin on with Omnipods. When you fill up a component with, say heatsinks, then swap said omnipod with another, the tonnage is not updated properly and the component shows empty, but you can't place anything there.

Edit: It seems the mechlab still considers the items to be in place, but won't show them.

Discovered that same bug earlier, should be patched with the changes I just put out.

Here's the full list of other new stuff:

Spoiler

Bug fixes:

• Fixed bug where switching from the mechlab to browse reset the filters to default values.
  
• Fixed similar bug where switching from browse to mechlab would cause items to no longer be draggable if you'd already selected a mech in the lab.
  
• Corrected BAS-B ECM hardpoint location.

New features:

• In the mechlab, you can now click on an item you've mounted and it will be inserted again. Useful for inserting many heatsinks at once, for example, rather than dragging in each one individually.
  
• The lists of weapons, ammo, engines, etc are now collapsable like in the MWO client.
  
• Added an "enable sound" toggle button at the top right of the window. This will eventually be replaced with a full settings menu.
  
• Disabled ability to remove omnipods (you can replace them as normal, just not have an empty component).
  
• Added Donate button

Stock loadouts are next, then I'll bring quirks into the mechlab, maybe start writing things for the archive section.

Excellent!

It seems the sound is still on even when enable sounds in unchecked, though.
And the donate button should not open in the same, but a new tab, i think.

Donated!

Thank you much appreciated. Try refreshing again for the sound, and if that fails Ctrl + F5

Didn't help. Browser's Firefox.

Edit:

Mistlynx G lists the LT armor quirk twice in the mech browser.

Hm weird about the sound. most likely the cache hasn't updated. if you're sure it has then idk lol I'll have to look into it, working in Firefox for me. Also for the MLX and other omnimechs, some quirks will be listed multiple times because there may be multiple pods with the same quirk. I'll change how they display later. PGI simply adds them up, which can be misleading. i.e. 10% cooldown on 3 omnipods doesnt make 30% but they say it does in the client

EDIT: just noticed you meant specifically the left torso twice >_>, fixed now
