Explanation

Loadout configuration UI/UX issue on PC (may affect all mouse input)

The use of sub-screens for loadout configuration results in an issue where the current loadout can inadvertently change when returning from selecting perks, gear, or attachments.

This occurs due to a combination of the current loadout changing on mouseover, and the subscreen selection box locations (which can leave the cursor over the loadout list when returning to the loadout screen).

Weapon selection is unaffected since the left pane is weapon categories, with the actual selection occurring in the mid pane.

It's wildly frustrating attempting to reconfigure something on the fly, then discovering that you've either butchered one of your other loadouts, spawned with the wrong loadout (which you then can't change without respawning), or both.

Possible interim fixes:

• Make the loadout list unresponsive to mouse movement until the cursor has left the loadout list panel when returning from equipment selection
• Move the perk/gear/attachment selection box into the mid pane area so that the cursor isn't left over the loadout list
• Don't change the current loadout on mouseover, only on click. If at main menu loadout, add second click to set active loadout (maybe greyed out star indicator if current loadout is not active loadout, swapping to active on star click)

Suggested actual fix - rework the loadout UI.

• Remove the subscreens for non-weapon selection, they're pointless and add unnecessary transitions
• Have attachment selection pop out to the right
• Have gear selection pop out over secondary
• Have perk selection pop out above (over gear/sec) (or just pop everything to the top of the right pane and shunt the infopanel down while a selection is open)
