On units that have PipWrap=0, this flag will simply add (or subtract if a negative value is used) this value from the number of frames those units take to Reload each round of Ammo.

If PipWrap is supplied with any value other than 0, ReloadIncrement can be used to speed up (or slow down) the rate at which a unit will reload with each successive PipWrap set. The exact reloading time can be calculated using the following formula1:

"total reload frames" = Reload + ( ReloadIncrement * ( "unit's current ammo" / PipWrap )^2 )

Notes

1 The division of "unit's current ammo" into PipWrap is integer division, which means that any decimal places will be knocked off; i.e. 5/2 = 2, not 2.5.
