Bugs/Side-Effects/Unexpected Limitations

When firing when ammunition is full, the actual amount of ammunition consumed for this firing is Ammo (Weapon) - ReloadAmount (both are newly added from Ares).

  • You can avoid this by specifying ReloadAmount=0.
    • In fact, if you want to make a Mine Layer like RA1, in order to make it necessary for the unit to return to a specific building to replenish the mines, this is actually something you should have done.

Correspondingly, if your weapon's Ammo<=ReloadAmount will cause this unit to be unable to rely solely on firing to consume ammunition ! ! !
