For people playing Co-Op they can now get rewards too if invited:
"The host is NOT required to have this mod installed. Only clients that want rewards ARE REQUIRED to have this installed.

How it works:

Play Co-op
Players accumulate C-bills, weapons, equipment and mechs while playing in another host's session.
Rewards are only given at the end of a mission, after all salvage has been claimed.
Awarded C-Bills are 30% of the total payout for that mission.
Mechs, weapons and equipment are randomly selected from the pool of claimed salvage items from that mission.
DLC is NOT required, there are checks to filter out items if DLC is not owned.
Intro dates are NOT followed.
The host is NOT deducted any C-bills, items or anything else."

Co-op Rewards at MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries Nexus - Mods and community (nexusmods.com)


I have not tested it so far and can not say if it works but thought it would be nice to made it known so you can try it yourself as one critique on the Co-Op mode is that invited players dont get stuff from it (which i feel is a thing that should be reevaluated).

Might actually put people off playing Co-Op splitting the salvage.
Sure sounds fair but then the unit leader / main character has less to work with thus needs to grind more.

Maybe introduce a draft system where the host starts to pick the first, then the next client picks, then host, client, host etc.

So the other players just get a copy from the hosts pool of items?

If invited co-op players can get c-bills, then a full shebangs could be considered, i.e: -

• invited co-op players bring his/her own mech, as long as obeying total tonage rule.
  
• invited co-op players' mech damage is self absorbed and self damage repair cost incured, now this is the true meaning to collecting partial payment from the mission / host ??? it's not host now I see above, but ......
  
• invited co-op players' get paid not by simply % but by the amount of work done, i.e. damage dealt / damage taken, primary objective hit count, etc etc......
  
• finally collecting salvage is around 25% each pilot, but host get's to pick first, while the other 3 pilots discuss amongst themselves who wants what with the final say by host.

something like that would be fun of an afteh match arguements

A: I want the small lasers because cantina, don't give me a mech.
B: I want the mech because cantine, don't give me heatsinks.
C: I want ammo for UAC5, because hard to get hard to buy.

right?
