Patch 2.24.11 Applied:
Almost a month, but this one contains a long-awaited unit type that I've been putting off but finally got to. Details of what's included are as follows:

Fixes
  • Fixed an issue with ProtoMechs where ammo was being required to be distributed.
  • Fixed an issue where the readout overview,, under certain scenarios, would show different quantities of equipment than what is listed in the distribution.
  • Fixed an issue where the initializing dialog would hang when editing units equipped with modular armor.

Changes
  • Changed how information related to engines, heat sinks, and cockpits (type, technology, and model) is stored in the database for easier, more consistent, retrieval.
  • Added the ability for users to design Superheavy Tripod BattleMechs and IndustrialMechs.

NOTE: Any forces or units impacted by the above fixes and/or changes have had their stats recalculated to ensure accuracy.

================================================================================================
Capabilities:
    Either a downgrade or an upgrade (opinions vary) of the standard DS-2, the 2L uses ER large
    lasers instead of PPCs, and replaces the medium lasers with a streak 6 pack to save heat.
    While the lasers have less damage and more heat, they have slightly longer range, less
    weight and space, and can be fired at point-blank range alongside the Streak pack. CASE
    protects the streak ammo and more armor is added.

Deployment:
    The 2L pairs nicely with anti-infantry mechs, such as the Scarecrow and Komodo. The
    devastator destroys enemy mechs while the other mech handles battle armor.
