Hello all,

I'm not sure if this has been brought up before, but would any of you players see a benefit to an AMS toggle?

Reason being that this would give control of the AMS to a pilot so they they may choose when to disable it so that:

a) AMS rounds do not give away your position when you are visually occluded from the enemy
AMS rounds do not get wasted on missile salvos that have lost their lock on your mech

Yes, it will take away from some of the "helping friendlies by shooting down missiles that are going to hit them" but I'm thinking just from a tactical and ammo conservation point of view.

It would be ON and AUTO as default, but you should have the option to toggle it.

What do you the rest of you Mechwarriors think?

I was just thinking the same thing myself.
If I'm running with a group that has ECM cover, I don't really need the AMS until the range closes, so I'd like to conserve the ammo until I need it.

Definitely in favor of a toggle here.
