love this mod for the lore. thing i noticed - the black knight partisan desc says ferro-fibrous but it looks like it actually doesnt have this in mech5
Hello. Your mod introduces a new Folder called Source. Your instructions do not mention WHERE to install this new folder. Does this new Source folder get added to the Paks folder? Why not tell us where to install the new folder?
I can't seem to be able to find the mech descriptions for mechs that I already own. Is there a way to see it? Maybe I'm not looking in the right place.
"Market" tab at the top, then switch from the small "Market" tab on the left to your "Inventory" tab. Now you can browse your "Active Hangar" and "Cold Storage". View a description by selecting that 'Mech, same as on the Market.
