All these questions and more can be answered now!

Check the images for the info

Make a backup of your player and ship before installing, there *could* be some mech-part that is lost and I haven’t tested FU. (I have tested most mech part adding/changing mods)

The little color bars in the mech parts supposedly represent the stats of the mech and how the compare to each other, but they barely mean much.

• Stats now support tiers from 1 to 20, using halves and a cyan overlay to portray this.
• Modded parts can now display their full glory.
  Weapons
  • Before, "Power" was an arbitrary number.
  • Now is calculated from the part’s stats to give a more accurate result.
  • Single shot and fast-firing weapons display their Single Shot Damage or DPS.
  • Mods that modify weapon damage get reflected on power display.

Oh boy, do I have something for you!

• Each mech part can be colored individually, or all at the same time.
• Support for Green’s Dye Suite.
  • Imports mech colors as dye palettes.
  • Can color the mech using current palette.
  • Mech Palettes have both primary and secondary tones, secondary colors are default (equal to themselves).

• Mech now stores health/energy and doesn’t refill on deployment.
• Autochips can be activated to health the mech by 5%.
• Mech crafting table is silent.

• Contains the hooks required for "builderscript" to be able to hook into the mechpart build-script (mechpartbuilder).
• Colors are stored in a table, and can store a variety of info if needed.
• Inside "/items/buildscripts/buildmechpart_QoL.lua" there is some commented code that would allow the damage calculations to porperly read projectile properties, like fragmentations and explosions.

• Should work on vanilla and Mech Overhaul, haven’t tested FU.
• NPC mechs ready for when the patch is available. (Still no patch yet)

Should be freely uninstallable. No mech parts loss or anything, colors will revert to default.
