Ammunition

[dj0311]

Is my musket fouling from shooting or do I have a limited ammunition count?

I think we have limited ammunition, I've seemed to have run out before. Fouling shouldn't prevent you from firing, it should just make it harder to load as time goes on and increase risk of misfires etc etc.

[JaegerCoyote]

Yeah, We have 40 rounds I believe.

I remember asking one of the devs (I think it was Hinkel) this question in-game. We have unlimited ammo, and only the visual aspect of the musket fouling is present.

You sure? After some time at the firing range today I couldn't fire anymore. So it was either bugged or I ran out of ammo :D.

[dj0311]

I've run out of ammo at least 10 times. I've also specifically attempted to count my rounds three time and got results of 36-40-52 before being unable to fire again without respawning.

fouling in real life can prevent you from firing. :)

Chewie;41078']fouling in real life can prevent you from firing. :)Well to be a little nit picky here, it likely wont prevent you from firing the gun, but more it will prevent you from ramming the ball/minie down the barrel in the first place :P

I usually take good care of my minie rifles when I shoot, running a cleaning patch every 5 shots or so, but I've tried going without, and at about 20 rounds (can't remember precisely) the barrel was so fouled up that the minie round got stuck halfway down and we had to drill it out.

I remember either Hinkel or Trusty saying that too so unless they changed it and not put it in the change logs then we still have unlimited ammo

[dj0311]

Could we get Dev insight on why it is we sometime are unable to fire after prolonged shooting?

[Duffy]

We tested this the other night and fired 40 rounds and kept right on going after that. I haven't hit a limit to the ammunition yet.

That would suggest that fouling stops you from firing, or it's a bug.

That would suggest that fouling stops you from firing, or it's a bug.I'm calling bug here, there's no way you can shoot a rifled or any muzzle loader really 40 times without cleaning it.
