Description

While I appreciate the detail MekHQ goes into with the BattleTech maintenance and repair rules, I would love it if the details could be abstracted like a MekWars campaign, like paying for full repairs with one click, and managing personnel skill-ups without dealing with a huge right-click menu. It would also be awesome to have automatic planetary conquest tracking with AtB integration, too.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate MekHQ's current maintenance and repair system, understand the AtB (Against the Bot) integration, and design an abstraction layer that simplifies the process for users. Start by examining the existing code for campaign management and personnel skills to identify possible extension points.
