8 Update 161 (build 1.8.0_161-b12)

Description

If a 'Mech has an armor type that has armor points per ton other than 16, such as ferro-fibrous, if you change the tech base or tech level, the points per ton gets set to 16.

To reproduce:

1. Load a 'Mech that has has an armor type that has armor points per ton other than 16. As an example, open the Mad Cat (Timber Wolf) Prime.

2. Change the Tech Level to any other value. As an example, set it to "Advanced." Notice that the points per ton gets set to 16 and the unallocated armor points becomes -38. This issue also occurs if you change the tech base.

Workaround:

After changing the tech base or tech level, re-select the armor type. The points per ton gets reset to the proper value.
