A suggestion about ammuntion.

Post by CommunistUser » 03 Oct 2016, 09:55

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary): Ammo types have a different colored bottom representing what type of ammo it is. (Like AP has a Yellow Tab at the bottom of the clip or something like that)

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole): It'll be easier to identify empty ammo magazines instead of us having to hover over them. (When you can see a color difference in ammo you'll probably picked the ammo that has color)

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc): Well, when marines expend all their AP ammo (and most of their Regular Ammunition)
The empty clips would help identify that... ''THIS IS GOOD AMMO GET IT REFILLED." Because you know, it looks special, and marines love their special shit.
Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):I can't tell you this even if I was a coder.

+1 Good idea.

Also let's get the magazine sprites fixed so you can see through peep holes roughly how many bullets are in the magazine still.

That would be a real dandy idea.

Would save time when swapping out ammo for AP, instead of having to mouse over all your mags to figure out which is what.

Different sprites for a pistol clips and shotgun shells already exist in game so there's no reason not to include differently colored clips for a rifle as well, +1
