Sorry guys, a "oh a kernel update, lets make a quick reboot", ended up working 3 1/2 hours on getting the server to boot again

Somehow the bootloader got corrupted or whatever and i saw only some error messages and then only thing it could boot was memtests

Thanks, what would we do without you!

Quirks & Modules.
Are you able to include them within the heat efficiency / DPS calculations?

I was asking about this things on pevious page. Smurfy, can we hope to get proper heat efficiency calculations for all mechs?

API POST to smurfy,

Is there ability to EDIT (description)? I want to edit the <name></name> for XML layout. In a load out, it is practically the description of mech.

-Only way to edit currently is to save, open the mechbay, scroll through 50+ mechs, open the particular mech and click rename mech.

I'd like to see us be able to get the option to give a description to the mech or I'd like to see the ability to edit the description 3rd party. I prefer the first!

Just a quick question. The cooling efficiency shown in the mechlab is basically just heat dissipation / heat generation, right?

I'm asking because when I took a look at one of my past mechs in the mechlab the cooling efficiency was off. Specifically with this mech:
http://mwo.smurfy-ne...d52eb1e513ae42c

The heat generation is 6.44 and the dissipation 2.00 per second. Which is correct given the weapons and number of heat sinks. So the cooling efficiency should be 2.00/6.44 = 31.05%
But the mechlab shows 29%.

Now either there is a bug with the calculation of the cooling efficiency, or I am missing something. If so I hope it is nothing obvious or I just made a small fool of myself.

Well done on adding more content to your API. I will check it out tomorrow!

Hey smurfy, I noticed a few of your modules are incorrect. the AMS module are for Range and ROF. But your site says 2 ROF boosts. Some of the other modules are incorrect. Hope this can be fixed!

Not sure what you mean. There are two AMS modules available.

AMS Range and AMS overload.

AMS Range gives you 2% to range and 2% max range (at level 1)
AMS overload gives you 10% ROF

Both modules are correctly displayed on my site.

Can't login with firefox, I get an error OCSP server has no status for the certificate.

Anyone else?

[Mason Grimm]

Yep, MechSpecs.com is having issues linking to Smurfy in our build posts due to the same.

[smurfynet]

i'm in the process of switching the cert , not sure why firefox causes this error. (chrome worked).
Switched back to the old cert for now.

Edit: somehow firefox had problems with ssl stapling (OCSP) i disabled that for now and switched to the new cert again. tell me if there are still problems.

Smurphy's mechlab is still a great way to share builds but DPS/Cooling calculations are terribly misleading nowadays.

For example, DRG-1N 2xAC5 2xML has max 8.59 DPS ( 4.81 sustained DPS), when in fact using modules and quirks it reaches 21,3 (11,5) DPS. That's a quite significant difference ;-)

I think Smurfy is working on that, and due in an update - any word on when that'll be in effect Smurfy?

[Nippon]

Hi Mr. SmurfyNet

At first:
Thank You for your work so far!

Feedback:
I suffer when i look at the quirks overview. Not only at smurfy, it happens to be that way everywhere.

-> Why not line the quirks in a table below each other.
(Order: Tech/Movement/Energy/Ballistic/Missiles)
Now they are lined up in a row and comparing two chassis can be difficult.

And, why not implement a quick "compare 1 to 1" tool. That would be even cooler


Kind regards,
Nippon

Hey smurfy,

The new Jagermech and Cataphract changes have altered the missile tube setups.

AFAIK... the missile racks look like this:
Jagermech-A: 20x2 (both arms)

Cataphract-2X: 20, 15 6x2 (left arm)

Thanks.

Edit: The data supports an LRM20 (first missile hardpoint) and LRM15 (second missile hardpoint), but only enables tube counts of 6 (for SRM6s) at most for both hardpoints, based on the XML.

Hey smurfy, is it possible to show the turret health over each turret on the maps or is that not in the data?

Say, what happened to the Weapon spreadsheet?

Edit: Oh, there it is... That was very odd - it didn't show up until I posted about it. If only other problems were amenable to this solution!
