LF Total Warfare to Alpha Strike conversion spreadsheet

So I have a ton of home brew designs, some cheese and others just modified existing designs, but the conversion rules take a while to process even a single unit through let alone several. I have already seen the one from Xotl at
https://bg.battletech.com/forums/alpha-strike-101/bt-gt-alpha-strike-converter/
but I don't think this was updated with the current errata after 2018. I have also used Mech Factory quite a bit, and while it is close, it also has errors and isn't exact.
Anyone have an updated spreadsheet for this?

Sorry, I just do them by hand.
...of course, by this point I'm pretty quick at doing them by hand.

If there's any errors in the sheet it would be in the heat modification stage, which is the part that kept changing. I might have some time today to take a fresh look at it.

I tried a couple of units to test the overheating (a Juliano for OV 4, and a Wulfen B for OVL), and both work, so it looks like I already incorporated all the heat errata. I did however add a small update correcting the heat on rocket launchers and One-Shot weapons.
Let me know if you find anything wrong (or just use whatever nckestrel linked).

Unless the spreadsheet has been updated lately, it presumably doesn't do the weak jump and strong jump specials?
That's the only significant change I can think of recently.

No, but it never did that sort of stuff (almost anything with specials, other than OVL): it's pretty bare bones. It was just intended to spit out accurate armour, structure and damage values, which I thought was the hardest and most important stuff.

It only has short range ability.
Before you take the shot, roll 1D6, on a 6+ you can take the shot. Otherwise it can’t do any damage that turn unfortunately.
If the shot hits, it only does 2 damage.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
