Noticed my atlas II was missing from mechbay after having completed a long lostech flashpoint.

Steps to reproduce the issue
I then loaded several saves looking for the point where it disappeared. Found it, from a save 4 hours earlier... So loaded that save and began moving forward again. Decided to load one of my mechs from storage, while atlas II was in bay one slot one, and the mech I readied overwrote the bay one slot one position where the atlas II had been.

Had similar where a King Crab was overwritten by another when readying two from storage.

Of note, I did move the mechs around at the same time, so suggest this was the root cause.

i had the same problem, but it appears as if mechs that a readied from the storage are put in the 1st slot of the 1st hangar and so on from there on and over ride the other mechs in the bays.
i managed to get around this problem by switching the mechs to the 2nd and 3rd hangar and have the 1st free to ready the other mechs into.

but that's no solution for players who are unaware of the bug, because you can spend a lot time in the campaigne just to lose a valuable mech in a split second just because you want one out of your storage

Had the same experience, Lost a Hatchy and wasn't sure how it happened. After losing a Centurion AL i moved my mechs to bay 2, When i lost my Cent. it was in bay 1, but not the 1st slot. It was middle of the row..
