Patch 2.24.13 Applied:
This was done last night, but just getting around to making the post today. Details of what's included are as follows:

Fixes
  • Fixed an issue where performing a search on Alpha Strike damage values would sometimes cause the processing dialog to hang.

Changes
  • Changed how information related to structure and communications (type, technology, and model), are stored in the database for easier, more consistent, retrieval.
  • Changed the Source field (available to Admins only) to be a lookup instead of a dropdown.
  • Added the Minesweeper as equipment now available to combat vehicles.
  • Added a '#' button just to the right of the 'Add Equipment' button during design of units. This will allow you to quickly add a user-specified quantity of the equipment currently selected. This is particularly useful when wanting to add many shots of ammo on ProtoMechs.

NOTE: Any forces or units impacted by the above fixes and/or changes have had their stats recalculated to ensure accuracy.

================================================================================================
Overview:
    A second generation Protomech, the Djinn was a more powerful refinement of the Roc's
    origonal concept.  It shifted the design paradigm using improved understanding of a
    protomechs use and function.

Capabilities:
    An advocate of the "speed is life" school of thought, the Djinn used the most powerful frame
    available at the time and devoted an unheard of, at that point in time, portion of that
    power into mobility.  A single ER Medium laser was deemed to be an adequate main gun
    combining reasonable portions of damage and range to the design.
    
    Armor was originally light on the arms but later reinforced at the expense of torso armor.
    This was a result of experience gained from combat use.  The head armor was never reinforced
    to begin with.  This is a result of realizing protomechs are not battlemechs.  They don't
    need their head to survive, and it's a small target anyways.   Only enough armor to prevent
    breaches in hostile environments such as space or underwater was incorporated.

Deployment:
    The Djinn has remained a dependable staple of protomech combat since its inception.  All too
    often the Djinn added to a combat formation to "protect the flanks" end up being the last
    survivors who have to carry their Clan to victory.

Variants:
    There have been a number of variants produced using this chassis over the decades.  And for
    the most part they have attrited away and not been replaced.  Current threats to the Djinns
    place in the order of battle are improved ultra heavy protomechs and those persistent
    attempts to make a slow but heavily armed protomechs.
