Armor values

These armor values will display overlayed on an armor layout chart below the variant information. The Armor total to the right of each variant is not always the same so all armor values should be taken from the Prime variant. Mechs without external pods will not display values for pods on the chart. Keep in mind that the armor total does not take external pods into account. The formatting for Armor is as follows:

Armor CT = Center torso armor, number only
Armor LRT = Left and right torso armor if symmetrical, number only
Armor LT = Left torso armor if asymmetrical, number only
Armor RT = Right torso armor if asymmetrical, number only
Armor LRA = Left and right arm armor, number only
Armor LRL= Left and right leg armor, number only
Armor H = Head armor, number only
Armor B = Back armor, number only
Armor INT = Internal leg armor, number only
Armor LE = Left external pod armor, number only (use only if all variants have external pods)
Armor RE = Right external pod armor, number only (use only if all variants have external pods)

Parameters

As noted before some parameters are optional, however some must be included. The following is a list of parameters, their functions, and whether or not they are required.

Parameter	Required	Function
Image	Yes	Image name: File:abc.jpg, File:xpz.png, Image:123.gif; Image name must be prefixed with Image: or File: to function. Image should be Prime variant on white, black, or transparent background.
ImageSize	No	(NOTE: ImageSize is no longer used. Infobox is now fixed to 350px width.) Image size is the width of the image. Will also determine the width of the infobox. Defaults to 350px when omitted.
Tonnage	No	Tonnage (mass) of the Mech in question.
Class	Yes	Creates a link to the category page of the Mech's class. Light, Medium, Heavy, or Assualt are the only options that should be entered here for the link to function properly.
Faction	Yes	The faction of the Mech's creators. Either Inner Sphere or Clan. Creates a link to the Faction's page.
Tickets	Yes	The number of tickets this asset gives on destruction in the TC gametype.
Tier	Yes	The asset tier for purposes of score and cbill adjustment.
Speed	Yes	The top speed of the Mech.
SpeedWithMasc	No	The top speed of the Mech when MASC is activated.
Rotation	Yes	The torso rotation of the Mech in degrees. (minimum)° to (maximum)°
PitchStand	Yes	The torso pitch of the Mech, in degrees, while standing. (minimum)° to (maximum)°
PitchCrouch	Yes	The torso pitch of the Mech, in degrees, while crouched. (minimum)° to (maximum)°
Price Prime	Yes	Price of the Prime variant.
ArmorT Prime	Yes	Total Armor of the Prime variant.
Engine Prime	No*	Engine size for the Prime variant. Can be omitted, but "Engine size:" will still be shown in the infobox.
Weapons Prime	Yes	Weapons used by the Prime variant. Weapons and Equipment require <ul> and <li> to function properly as unordered lists.
Equip Prime	Yes	Equipment used by the Prime variant. Weapons and Equipment require <ul> and <li> to function properly as unordered lists.
Price A... J	No	Price for each additional variant (up to 9).
ArmorT A... J	No	Total Armor for each additional variant (up to 9). Total armor is the sum of armor points for components sans the external pods armor (to avoid confusion between variants with and without external pods).
Engine A... J	No*	Engine size for each additional variant (up to 9).
Weapons A... J	No*	Weapons for each additional variant (up to 9). Variants will not display if this field is blank or omitted. Weapons and Equipment require <ul> and <li> to function properly as unordered lists.
Equip A... J	No	Equipment for each additional variant (up to 9). Weapons and Equipment require <ul> and <li> to function properly as unordered lists.
Pods	Yes*	Use to display Mech paperdolls in the armor box with no, one, or both externals. Must be used if Armor CT has a value. "Pods = Both" shows both externals; "Pods = RE" shows only right external; "Pods = LE" shows only left external; "Pods = None" or blank shows no externals.
Armor CT =	Yes*	Armor value for Mech's Center Torso. Number only. Required for armor diagram to be displayed.
Armor LRT =	No	Armor value for Mech's Left and Right Torso when torso armor is symmetrical. Number only. Will be overwritten by Armor LT or Armor RT when those parameters are filled.
Armor LT =	No	Armor value for Mech's Left Torso when torso armor is asymmetrical. Number only. Will overwrite Left Torso of LRT value if filled.
Armor RT =	No	Armor value for Mech's Right Torso when torso armor is asymmetrical. Number only. Will overwrite Right Torso of LRT value if filled.
Armor LRA =	No	Armor value for Mech's Arms. Number only.
Armor LRL=	No	Armor value for Mech's Legs. Number only.
Armor H =	No	Armor value for Mech's Head. Number only. Displayed as "HD" on chart.
Armor B =	No	Armor value for Mech's Back Torso. Number only. Displayed as "BT" on chart.
Armor INT =	No	Armor Value for Mech's Internal Armor (Legs). Number only.
Armor LE =	No	Armor value for Mech's Left External Pod. Number only. Will not display if left blank.
Armor RE =	No	Armor value for Mech's Right External Pod. Number only. Will not display if left blank.
Version =	No	Value informing that stats are up to date for this version. Will default to 0.11.0 currently if left blank.
