MechAssault 2 Classic Battle Tech Expansion

Description
As of08/15/2024 pushed out an update that should fix the shared.lua conflicts, let me know if its still causing issues. I want to thank everyone for their patience and input while I work out the teething issues.

This is an expansion for the MechAssault2 mech add-on, and will only work if that base add-on is installed.

Addon requires full restart of garry's mod after install.

What is this?

This adds 105 variants with new weapons designed to resemble their classic tabletop/mech warrior counterparts while trying to keep time to kill down and maintain an arcady feel. Originally intended for private use on TBU.

All variants use the recolorable multiplayer skins.

Credits

The team behind the mech assault 2 mech pack

Tank Nut, Larval Extract, Dopey, Umbree and Founder.



FAQ

Where is variants X,Y or Z?
Some variants would be either redundant and not offer much or lack key functionality given that there is no heat tracking or special armor/equipment yet.


Are these balanced to play with the original set?
No


Are these balanced to use against each other?
No, not all mechs are created equal.

this seems to happen when trying to use power suit variants. They just stand there and beep when I try to get in them.

the variants of elemental (the power armor style guy under light mechs) create errors and are unable to shoot.

Ah yes, the most angered Astartes Chapter, I wonder which primarch you Unironically belong to.

was just making sure, thank you for clarifying

This is by design, the added variants use a set of weapons modified to work like their mech warrior/ table top counter parts rather than mech assault.

doesnt work with upgrades

The new Elemental mech variations don't work, every time I try to get in one it doesn't let me, and I get a lua error.
