Bug report: if you remove additional heat sinks from the engine you are unable to put them back in IIC mechs.

*snip* it looks like the Clan XL engines are not showing their internal heat sink slots properly.

Thanks for providing the mechlab for us, its an invaluable tool!

yeah, basically meaning the slots are missing/broken, 275 and up. Seyla.

Hello Smurfy, I have a spreadsheet to calculate build information. I'm noticing a discrepency between my spreadsheet and your values and curious how you find them for your site. The two values in question are Sustained DPS and Heat Efficiency.


In my spreadsheet:

• For my heat efficiency, I simply take Dissipation per second divided by heat generation per second.
  
• Heat generation per second is weapon heat divided by cooldown+duration
  
• Dissipation per second is Heat sink quantity times heat sink dissipation value. Internal (fixed engine) heatsink value is 0.20 and external (not-fixed) heatsink value is 0.14 for IS DHS and 0.15 for C-DHS
  
• Sustained DPS is simply a factor of the build's max DPS and heat efficiency. I multiply the Max DPS with the heat efficiency percentage.

I'd love to find out the differences causing this discrepancy. At least to understand it and perhaps adopt a similar approach.

Was there any improvement made to saving/loading Mechbay? For some reason today it loaded in 2 seconds compared to the usual 20 seconds for my approx 100 saved builds.

Was wondering if it's a mystery of if Smurfy nailed something here.

Kudos!

It is back now, you are amazing sir.

[smurfynet]

Yes, i'm aware of some downtime , i need to add a new field to the database which takes ages with a couple of million saved loadouts

[Rydiak Randborir]

"ERROR:Sorry this loadout could not be loaded. Internal Server Error"



Edit: Now 503..

HMPF. Very bad idea adding a new field to the database even with only "2049992" loadouts.
I canceled that and rolling out a new update reverting the usage of that new field.

Site will be up momentarily.

[Rydiak Randborir]

Site is 503 again

[Ingga Raokai]

Happy new year!... that might be a past already... I see that 503 is giving you a tough start this year...

[smurfynet]

Hm, same problem as last time. only problem is it crashed shortly after i went to sleep, so i did not see the monitoring email

I think i know the cause and it is already planned to fix this next week.
(backups causing quite a high load on the system, causing varnish to freeze (https://www.varnish-...rac/ticket/1119)

I will see if i can add a workaround before then.

Keep up the awesome work, Smurfy! We Mechwarriors appreciate the time and hard work you've put on this. Have a happy new year!

[Rydiak Randborir]

Hey Smurfy, small bug with XL engines in the Mechlab. If you hover over an XL engine, the Details box that pops-up lists XL engines with a slot requirement of 6 (instead of 12).

This is really sweet. I love how you have the mechs grouped by clan/innersphere and then under each mech the variants. You have the standard load out and just everything, it's great. So I have a lot of stuff because I have been investing for a while, but I don't know what is what and what I see missing are the special mechs that you can only get with packs like Founders, Project Phoenix, Saber Reinforcements, and even the packs that you can still buy like Clan Invasion, etc. Perhaps these "specials" or no different than a variant that you can buy except perhaps a C-Bill bonus and came, the point is I don't know so here are some examples and I do see you have at least one such special Mech, JR7-D(S). If for not other benefit than showing the bonuses, special features, locks, etc the Mech has it would be nice to list these variants.

JR7-D vs JR7-D(F) A Founder Mech

LCT-1V vs LCT-1V(P) A Project Phoenix Mech

GRF-1N vs GRF-1N(P) A Saber Reinforcement Mech

WHK-PRIME vs WHK-PRIME(I) A Clan Invasion Mech

hey smurfy, we're having some issues with the Warhawk having JJ in the displayed mechlab over here. https://www.mechspec...690/#post-80569

Let me know if anything can be done.
