It would save time with balance arguments in lobbies if there was a clear display of the total strength of the teams. I appreciate that it wouldn't be totally accurate because ratings are not exact, but I think it would be very helpful nonetheless.
Add total team strength display to lobby screen
I've tried searching for that in the mods section in the FAF client but can't see it - am I missing something?

There is a readme with it. I got it to work using those instructions.
It's not a regular in-game mod, it's a "lobby mod" . . . you can't modify the lobby itself using game mods that are installed/managed in the normal way. That's why there are special instructions.
Still this should be added automatically to the FAF client in some way.
Or can you make it as a pop-up window that would be present during the loby waiting time. Maybe that would be easier to implement? Same pop-up as you get when the lobby is full, just always on or let's say 10sec after loby is full and when the host makes a switch then that it would pop-up again with refreshed stats??
And the Supreme Score Board mod should be added to the client automatically too - way better then the original!!
