Great, the Gadget Guide is pretty cool.
From what I can see:
1) it seems that the transposition of the pilot's skills to the mecha is wrong.
2) You can not select the mecha's weapons (or vehicle) with the pilots's Close Combat/Ranged Combat Skills
3) the Summonable Features add a +1/+2 to the equipment cost, in addition to double the cost of the equipment advantage

I noticed that the power of morph on the Mecha power list doesn't have Metamorph to make transformable mecha? Anyone know how to fix it? Also, mecha have a features list like vehicles. Will this be added in a later update or should I just use the Features power?

The Growth power is broken now. It adds +1 STR for levels 1-3 of Growth, then at 4 resets the Growth modifier to 0, and so on (so +1 STR at 5,9,etc)

I got a message saying that growth would be fixed on the next update. I hope they also fix the Morph power for the Mecha.
