Hello,

maybe I am somewhat blind (not unlikely), but I cannot find a good way to reload a weapon. On the In-Play tab I can't see a reload button, when I just edit the weapon and increase the amount of ammunition in it, it does not substract the ammunition from the pool. While my char would certainly not complain about free APDS ammo, I as player find it rather complicate to use.

So, is there any way to reload (or switch a magazin) easily?

I just tested, and pressing the Fire buttons on the In-Play tab reduces the total amount of that type of ammunition I have loaded into that weapon. I was testing with APDS ammo on an Ares Light Fire 75.

Then, when I was done with that, I edited the weapon, pressed the ">|" button on that ammo, and it fully loaded the weapon with that pool of ammo.

Because we're not sure what the user will want to reload with, we just left it up to the user to edit the weapon and change what ammunition is currently loaded (including reloads), which is why there's quick access to that weapon's edit form from the In-Play tab.

Ah, I wondered why ammunition was not substracted from reload, but its then substracted by shooting.
Another thing, there are weapons with 120+ ammunition. Is there any way to reload them to full without destroying the left mouse button after a couple of magazins?

I'm not sure what you mean. Do you mean you are using the reload 1 arrow lots of times, and not the reload all arrow?

Thanks,

must have been too blind on the small tablet monitor to see the full reload buttons.

Any chance for a touch optimized SR5 build?
