Feature suggestion: Automatically substitute bounty equipment that's not available in the depot with a regular one

[Pirulax]

So, if a vehicle has bounty equipment in the loadout, but it isn't available in the depot at the time the user clicks on the tank it should be automatically substituted with a matching regular one. [Eg.: Bounty rammer => Regular rammer of the correct type]

This is useful in case there's only 1 bounty equipment piece, and the tank it's on is in a battle.

TODO:

• [ ] Automatically substitute bounty => regular
  • Maybe if there's no regular equipment either, a notification should be sent [So people don't go into a battle with an eq. missing?]
• [ ] Upon each battle end notification the code should check if the currently selected vehicle needs an equipment piece from the tank that got back from the battle - If so, demount it, and mount it [...on the selected vehicle]

Also, thank you very much for the mod, it's really useful.

Hello there. Thanks for really well made issue. 🤝 Regarding bounty-regular equipment: I will think about it. But the problem is that I can't get alternative of bounty equipment via game builtin methods. So I will need to implement some dirty hacks to do so. And what about the second proposition - I also will think about this. There is a lot of logic to dump into one auto-return logic which is already big because of WG's post-progression setups.

Thank you for the reply. Yeah I imagine it's not easy to do, but oh well. I wish WG's backend was lot faster than it currently is [And so the rate limits would be higher tho]. Or, well, ideally, this mod would be part of the game for wot+ users [I think I'd make sense for WG to include this feature by default]
