When you highlight a mech in the bay, it'll show you what weapons are loaded, heatsinks, engine, speed, heat rating, modules, upgrades, etc etc.

But not how much ammunition you have loaded. Do know that you need to go into the modification screen, look thru each section for each ton of each type loaded, and do the math.

Would be nice to have that added to the summary on highlight.

----------------

Also - ranges added to the weapon details at the bottom when you've highlighted it in the list on the right.

Agreed. Not an Earthshaking necessity but a good feature.

ammo count AND what type of ammo you have loaded.

I have accidental;ly launched with AC5 ammo instead of UAC ammo or regular srm instead of streak ammo ETC far too many times.

This is a reallybgood idea. I put my ammo in different locations and it's always annoying to go through my entire mech counting ammo.

I hope you've posted this in the suggestion forum. As others have stated, I too have fallen victim to the "wrong ammo" brain fart. :huh:
