Very useful mod. Have often wondered... 'why is that damn AI pilot not shooting?'.. now I know why. :cozybethesda: Thank you.

Brilliant Mod--adds tremendously to the single-player experience. Did you ever know that you're my hero?: )

Wow, this has been useful from my first day of use.
I have a bunch of mods. I had considered this one but wasn't sure, given some comments about layout or whatever.

I was wrong. I don't have layout issues with the current version, so not sure what that's about. But I do have super useful ammo and heat indicators for my lance-mates!

Revealing things to address in our mech design so as to better support the lance member and their capabilities (or ineptitudes). Having the empirical feedback right there at a glance is really useful.

Oh sure, theoretical bottlenecks can be had from the mech stats--but in-the-field feedback for specific mechwarrior [or few] who get assigned the metal? That's heaps more valuable. Well done.

Understood.
But at least making the strip narrower would not hurt. :D

I'm looking at some options to rearrange things to make it more friendly on screen space. The base widget PGI has is cumbersome to deal with, so it's a little work to do even simple "move this over there" type stuff. The only reason the health bar isn't where it normally is was due to that widget not playing nice with the rest of mine when I put it in the normal place.

Greetings!
Pretty handy tool. Thanks for it. But is it possible to somehow reduce the size of the integrity scale and place it in a more familiar place? In my opinion, in its current form, the mod forces this part of the interface to cover a rather wide area of ​​the display due to the magnitude of the integrity scale.
[and sorry my bad english... >_<"]

Is this compatible with YAML mods
