When switching an AST from AutoSort to HUI/FCO mode, is the base weight calculated off the AutoSort group 1, or the HUI/FCO Light group?

When switching an AST from AutoSort to HUI/FCO mode, is the base weight calculated off the AutoSort group 1, or the HUI/FCO Light group?

Question: With the AST, you can’t change the % of base weight like the ASC, it’s determined off the lowest weight group start weight (65%).
When you switch to HUI mode, does it stay based off the lowest weight group number in your auto sort settings, or does it now go off of the lowest number in its HUI calculated weight group?

Answer: When set to the HUI/FCO mode, the displayed percentage based groups essentially overwrite the settings groups 'slots' in the system. So the light group replaces group 1, the medium group replaces group 2, and the heavy group replaces group 3. It then proceeds to follow the same rules for base weight calculation, which will calculate the percentage based on the 1st/lightest group.
