Server-Side Hotfix: Ammunition Stacking - Kazinsal - 09-12-2018

Good evening/morning/afternoon, folks. A couple hours ago we deployed a server-side hotfix to enable ammunition stacking through the autobuy plugin. As of right now, the following weapons will double their ammo capacity if you have two or more launchers equipped:
  • Bombers
    • Hellfire Rocket Pod
  • Gunboats
    • Harpoon Missile Launcher
  • Cruisers
    • Marauder Missile Launcher
    • Devastator Ion Torpedo Launcher
    • Trinity Triple Torpedo Launcher
  • Battlecruisers
    • Javelin Cruise Missile Launcher
    • Predator Missile Launcher
  • Battleships
    • Lightning EMP Missile Launcher
    • Reaper Missile Launcher
    • Hurricane Missile Launcher

The following weapons will have their ammunition stack proportionally to the number of guns/launchers mounted (eg. 4x ammo capacity if 4x launchers are equipped):
  • Bombers
    • Bomber Chaingun

Over the course of the next few patches, based on how each of these weapons performs with their new maximum ammo capacities, weapon balance may be tweaked. For now, happy incomingmissileINCOMINGMISSILEINCOMINGMISSILEINCOMINGMISSILE

More CMs please. Thank you.

Never could find the sound file for that...

But ye, I can see this going either really good or really bad. Looks at the possible 140 novas... RIP caps

Heh, that has pretty much been the case all of the time anyway.

RE: Server-Side Hotfix: Ammunition Stacking - Kazinsal - 09-12-2018

Looks like that was a mistake. Not sure why that got left in.

e: Reloaded the plugin, novas and incaps have been removed from the stacking system.

Nova stacking was an unintentional oversight and has been gutted.

Durandal was an unintentional oversight and has been sent to a secret location to be 'reeducated'.

FTFY :^)

jfc, can we don't on an announcement post?

RE: Server-Side Hotfix: Ammunition Stacking - Sand_Spider - 09-21-2018

Is there any chance for ammo stacking to be implemented with CMs, as well? It'd be neat to use the same CM type in all slots for ships that have more than one launcher.

Are there any plans to allow ammo stacking for Maxim Chainguns, for those who run dual-Maxims on SHFs?
