Can't believe I just spent about 4 hours updating code so you can add a freakin' Ladder to a 'Mech.

In all honesty, I could've spent 15 minutes, and done it the easy way like MML did, where you only have ladder selections of 20, 40, 60, 80, and 100m lengths. But no, the rules say you can select ladders in lengths of 1m increments up to 100m, so I had to implement it that way. Made no difference that there is almost no reason to have a 21m ladder when its weight and crits are the same as a 40m one. Sure, you save a whopping 95 c-bills!!

Anyways, at least I feel good that it's implemented right and not done half-assed. Smile

Well, they're really meant for IndustrialMechs. But the rules say they can also be placed on BattleMechs, so there it is! In game rules, I guess it's for when you're transporting Rambo, and he needs to get up the side of the hill quickly to kill the opposing enemy and rescue his buddies.
