Arhain contributed to the MegaMek/megamek and IllianiBird/mekhq repositories, focusing on backend development, configuration management, and UI improvements using Java, Java Swing, and XML. Over five months, Arhain delivered features such as dynamic unit market pricing with campaign modifiers, robust cost calculation logic, and enhanced maintenance status APIs. Their work included refining MRMS configuration, improving terminology for clarity, and implementing UI enhancements like tooltip wrapping and editable spinners. By addressing both feature development and bug fixing, Arhain improved maintainability, accuracy, and user experience, demonstrating a thorough approach to code refactoring, documentation, and internationalization within complex game development systems.

October 2025 monthly summary for IllianiBird/mekhq: Implemented dynamic unit market pricing with campaign modifiers, enabling campaign-specific modifiers and updated price calculation based on unit composition (mixed tech, Clan, Inner Sphere).

In May 2025, I focused on MRMS Target Number handling in IllianiBird/mekhq, delivering a set of features and fixes that stabilize extra time usage and TN calculations, while also performing substantial MRMS configuration/terminology cleanup. Key changes include: improvements to Target Number handling and extra time behavior (use extra time when the final TN is within bounds; added a work-time setter; refined handling of null work times); fixes to avoid premature termination when extra time is desired but not permitted, and to adjust to meet minimum BTH or maximum BTH while respecting extra time and rush settings; a fallback check to prevent individual TNs from exceeding the maximum allowed TN and recalculating TNs accordingly; prioritization of achieving a preferred TN over the maximum when using Extra Time or Rush Job, with updated resources and service logic; and comprehensive MRMS configuration/terminology cleanup (deprecations, renames, config updates, test adjustments, playset updates, and added deprecation tags).
