quick note that i noticed on the stats for the QKD-4H is that it lists as being 10 missile tubes in the left torso.

Missile ports in this game apparently follow two rules.
1. The origin point for launching.
2. The limit for how many missiles that can be fired each salvo per each missile launcher. (but not as a whole)

In the case of the AS7-D LRM's will always fire from it's 10 LRM missile ports. So a LRM20&15 will need to fire in two waves (salvo) because they are larger. However, 2 LRM10's will fire simultaneously because they are individually equal to the number of missile ports.

MW:O sets limits per individual missile launchers, but ignores them as a whole. Which is why 2 SRM4 in a JR7-D fire simultaneously (4 missile ports), but one SRM6 fires in two waves. It's nonsensical, but that is just the way it is.

So smurfy's site is right, it has 10 missile tubes.

Very nice work! I enjoy this mechbay verily much as it gives quite a bit of extra info.

That said: I am finding myself searching for a mechlab interface with everything on a single page. Unfortunately Smurfy (and Mechromancer) both spread that info across several pages. Which is annoying if you wish to see the effects instantly of tweaks and changes as it keeps you loading page after page trying small tweaks.
I would very much like all the info on a single screen, instant refreshes when tweaks are done and smaller graphical presentation to show the effects besides the calculated numbers and (approx) times.
I realize that not everyone has a big screen (1920x1200) and that working it out so that it all fits on one page is not a cake walk: still I am asking if you could do this.
To accommodate more people you could even put in a settings for the page setup so that people with smaller screens can select multiple page buildup and such possibles. Yes, again I realize that that is still more work. Sorry. Though I really do hope that you can see the potential of such a layout. Would it be possible to do this?

Would appreciate this very much!

Seeing as we have thier hardpoints, engine ratings, etc... would it be possible to add the the Project Phoenix Mechs? Perhaps under a separate "coming soon" tab?

Beagle Active Probe's tooltip needs to be updated to reflect it's effect on ECM.

Quote

Beagle Active Probe

- Now counters ECM within 150m.
- BAP will only counter 1 enemy ECM 'Mech within its range
- A Mech that equips both ECM and BAP will only receive the sensor range bonus and the ability to detect powered down Mechs from BAP. Other BAP features gets overridden by the active ECM.

Hope you realize this means adding the pods. Problem is... how will they handle the pod's critical slots? Guess we won't find out till they add them in.

The current tooltips are from the game not written by me, but i can have a look in adding an extended description

Currently i tried to add a realistic stock loadout, but before we get more infos about the mechs / changes to come this is the best i can do.

If I understood correctly amount of tubes on missile hardpoint states max possible amount, if yes then:
HGN-733C left arm missile hardpoint have 10 tubes instead of 6 and 2 left torso ones are 20+10

[smurfynet]

I pushed an update (primarily phoenix mechs) and did a server switch 4 hours ago.
With todays game-update i probably will release updated missile tube infos. (thanks to drillson)
I'm not 100% sure the tubes update comes with the next update, because auf probable layout problems but i try to include it.

Great interface that I use a lot for mech building, but I was looking at the Project Phoenix mechs, and I noticed something's off. The max armour values are off for the Locust and the Shadow Hawk.

Edit: actually, looking more in to it, it's the legs, at least on the Shadow Hawk. For the Locust it looks like the Side Torsos & the Legs are a little high.

Sorry if I'm wrong, the dps for lasers ..eg. large laser = 9 divide by 3.25 = 2.769 but your data indicate 2.12

[smurfynet]

for lasers you need to factor in the duration aswell.

I was trying to build out an Atlas -K to match the Mechlab site and can't do it due to weight. I'm noticing that the stripped weight on the website is 10 tons and in the game its 28.5 tons. I found it to be the same on the Atlas D-DC and RS. I don't have the D but assume it's the same. On the site all builds of the Atlas show a stripped weight of 10 tons.

The 10 tons are correct, based on the information you provided i guess you missed the armor of your mechs. 28.5 is almost the amount of an empty atlas with stock armor.

Doh!!! Thanks for that. I was just going in and knocking off all the items, but yes, forgot the armor.

[smurfynet]

Pushed some small improvements over the last couple of days.
For example showing more Quirks on the mainpage after clicking the Arm/Torso angles, also showing the max engine size directly in the list.

Also the main page has the Public Test data now (primarly the heat penalties)
Accessable via the version dropdown or here: http://mwo.smurfy-ne...ats/public-test

Edit: Pushing another update right now, with CB prices for Victor and JJ Class 2.

I also have a question, is there any interest in seeing the available paint colors or cockpit items in a list on the mainsite? I have no use for this infos personaly but maybe some of you guys want that info

[Nothing Whatsoever]

First, I have to say your site is awesome, it keeps getting better. Thank you for your work.


Second, I had a question, with modules like Seismic Sensor, is there a way that we can see if there are speed thresholds in any game files where the module could be tricked, so that one does not appear as a blip on the enemy minimap?

Again, I really appreciate the work you keep putting into your site.

Cheers

[Goose]

It's gon'a take a whole new page on this sight to explain the new heat penalty, ain't it?
