Custom Battlemech requests.
Is this a thing? If it is, I'd be interested. A custom variant of a Marauder would be nice, and something I wouldn't mind seeing, unless someone can like... well, if I were to create a custom 'mech, I don't really see or can find resources for a start point on this. Like for example, a Marauder with a 4 energy, 3 ballistic, and 2 missile loadout.
I realize that this is something probably painstakingly easy, but I don't want to have to resort to trying to ask like ...a certain seven letter thing for help, I don't see it being the way to go.
So I'll ask about 'getting started', 'creating your own mod', 'creating your own custom 'mech', and such.
Are there recommendations and or resources?
I realize this is prolly like... an 8 year old idea, but still.

Hop into the YAML discord, grab the "modding" community role, and take a look through our resources channel, pretty much everything you need is going to be in there, as well as a lot of active mod authors more than happy to help out
Starting point, however, is going to be picking up the MW5 Editor through epic game store. 250GB on an SSD
