I'm working on my first plug-in (total con; it'll probably be about another year or two.) When I was working on my weapons, for AmmoType, I'm not sure what to do -- I looked at EV Data and most of those weapons' AmmoType were the difference between that weapons ID# and 128 (e.g., if the weapon was ID 135, the AmmoType was 7). But how would that work? And some of the weapons didn't work that way. Help! Please! How do I figure out the AmmoType?

Best Church Prank Ever:
Fart, and have a friend shout: "Hark! An angel has spoken!"
A doctor walks into a bank. He takes a pen out of his pocket and starts writing on a form with it... only it's not a pen, it's a rectal thermometer. The teller says, "Sir, that's not a pen." The doctor looks down and says, "Oh, DAMMIT! Now some @$$hole's got my pen!"

Yes, that's how the ammotypes should generally be set. But, if you want to experiment with having two weapons feed off of the same ammo supply, you could set two different weapons to use the same ammotype. Unfortunately, I believe this does not work. I haven't tried it myself, though, so don't take my word for it.

i did the experiment a coupla weeks back. the definitive answer: it doesn't work. i tried several permutations and finally decided there is no possible way to make two weapons feed off of the same ammo supply

if tin whistles are made of tin, what's a fog horn made of?

True i have tried that experiment to and they're right it dosn't work but i think i found a way but its a long shot i'll get back to ya'll when i try it

It doesn't take rocket science, but it sure helps.

thanks everyone.... i guess ill be hearin from you again dekota. i just have trouble thinking about HOW that works.... ah, who cares, if it works, it works. thanks.
