I've moved it forwards (Pilot was pretty much fused to the chair when I took that screenshot), and it's been merged on github, out of my hands for the time being.
But at least the official pack finally has a battlemech, and with truly mech only weapons (before infantry could fire them by using a glitch), there might be some further development for Mech based PvP (in the official packs that is).

Great timing, I was just about to ask when you expected to have a 1.7.10 release ready.
Can't wait to finally get to try out your glorious mechs.

I came.
Edit: I uncame; it's missing the dual grenade machine guns on the front mounts.

The newer BMPT doesn't have them. However I couldn't make them work anyway, I can only do the 30mm cannons and the missiles

What's the FC pack's release timeline? I think we could, uh, coordinate our efforts more, uh, synergetically to, uh, maximize productivity this quarter. It might be best to get a scheduled version release pattern going if there's not one already that I haven't heard about.

I already held back the last release so I could roll it out on the same day as Flan's 4.8.0 (which had been advertised quite a bit).
As for schedules, first Saturday of each month brings the most downloads, I usually release then or righ on top of a Flan update (even when they aren't advertised on his facebook I know when they are due to be released).
In other words there's no strict schedule, but there's a set of guidelines for optimal release dates.
EDIT: BMPT-72 done, pawned off to LabJac

You sick bastard. The BMPT-72 is a disgrace to the name BMPT. I'll still use it, but be very upset while doing so.

Well I'm not going to waste time making a whole new chassis for the original.

Got bored again, converted the Leviathan II into an AA/Support tank. Like a BMPT but twice the Dakka.
