As the title says in addition to the existing body damage chart on the left bottom corner , i would like also displayed above it the total percentage of my mech as it appears to me for other mechs.
Also Ping should be displayed with FPS when pressing F9 and be updated faster then 5 second interval.

I agree. many times team members have asked what their % is at.

I'd rather we could just target our own teammates to see their details (disallow lockon of weapons)

Ping is not that important. I regularly play at 250ms... every packet you send is more traffic slowing down the important stuff

i have thought about this a few times.
you could see weapon loadouts and specific damage, which can be incredibly useful for knowing who needs your help or where you should lead a target. but locking friendlies would definitely need it's own keybind.

and as for the OP: i see nothing wrong with that but i have never really found that number very useful or informative. an atlas may be at 80% but what if the 20% is all out of just one of his torso sections and he can no longer risk being hit from the front, or it could mean his armor is yellow all over and he is in very good shape.

Thats why you would take note of the 'mech armour information displayed on your upper right cockpit view? But i second the OP's suggestion.

lower left.

he is talking about having this for your mech. again it seems redundant and much less useful than the information that is already given.

don't have a problem with it, it just seems like it would be useless with all of the other given info.

Well its important as left corner screen just shows degree od damage like yello , orange and red , is some parts of my mech 's armor are yellow i want to know if i was just touched by couple of medium lasers at range or turned yellow by a full damage of a gauss rifle .
