Would be a good idea, if you are going to allow things like engines to be built, an update of the units page would be nice. Tell us what size engine a unit uses. Probably a few other things along this line, but this is what came to mind.
For mechs, the gyro size would be nice as well as the engine..
Fusion or ice for tanks.
Just curious, but how would you determine who can build what size gyro?
Would you need to add a new research in, or just put it in with what mechs you can make is the size gyro you can make?

Gyro size is the same as engine size, and I assume they come as part of the engine tech.
Mech engines are simply walk speed times weight, except I think the Nemesis still uses a 400 from the time it was a 5/8/5 instead of a 4/6/4.

Haha, you people think admins still look at these forums.

Actual btech used 1/2/3/4 ton gyros. Still, having it listed so people know what to look for when they need one is a good thing. Not everyone knows that walk speed times mech tonnage equals engine size.
Also, going by tonnage would simplify some things. But simple isnt nev, so forget I said anything.

This is all in the works as well. As mentioned in TRKs post in this same section, the current info page seems to need more space. once the main window is expanded, then we can add in, and reorganize more info like ENG sizes
I think that having to know some formula of how to calc walk to get to engine size, for a NON CBTr is a royal pain in the a$$ and needs a better way to be shown to the average noob

Is it true? Do you really suck that bad??
