For those having issues with primitive ammo as of now i suggest using the RIMMSqol mod, with this you'll most probably be able to modify the ammo recipe to your liking which from what i've read in here seems to be the problem.

If someone has trouble getting them to equip the correct ammo for their weapon (when I had them equip an industrial weapon while having primitive ammo loaded they wouldn't let me equip industrial ammo manually), try to make them drop their ammo kit and reequip it.

I also don't know if this is intentional, but when I let them equip large kits they would never wanna equip primitive ammo, I then let them equip medium kits, which solved that issue.

I guess large kits only allow industrial ammo and better? Not sure.

As a temporary fix I guess you just spawn the ammo via dev mode.

Seconding @Leo Atreides' comment.

Can't pick material to make the ammo out of.

It is bugged, primitive ammo can no longer be crafted because there is no material assigned to the recipe. The recipe asks for 20 "stuff", "stuff" used to be wood, but now "stuff" is just undefined.

This is most likely an oversight from the las update....

I also have a problem with crafting primitive ammo, it seems to not recognize that u have wood planks for some reason. So im guessing there is maybe a wrong colon or smth like that set? I dont know much but could be a small bug, hope it gets resolved soon as i like this mod more than others.

can`t craft primitive arrow

for some reason my colonist wont load anymore than 2 slots in their kits. messing around in the mod menu does nothing

Question: Anyone encountered a poblem that makes you unable to reload turrets? If so, is it this mod the cause or is it a load order? Or are there some mod that causes it?

Reloading weapons works no problem.

Here is an example: Mod is Vanilla Factions expanded - medieval 2, turret is wall-mounted arbalest. It says it needs wood to reload, but I can't command a pawn to reload, as the option doesn't pop up, nor will the pawn fetch ammo when it is manning the turret.

Only solution right now for me, is to remove said turret and build a new one, as the new one is fully loaded.

I feel like industrial ammo specifically should use chem-fuel as well as steel when crafted, given most modern day guns use a combustible substance to fire their projectile.

How to use/make the kits

Hey there, long time fan of this mod but I'm trying to tweak some of the values and having a good bit of difficulty.

I'm attempting to adjust the market value for the ammo types and I'm doing this by going into the 1.6 folder > the definitions folder and then opening up the ammo definitions XML file, finding the "marketvalue" value and changing it. I'm finding that that is having no effect but I'm just not sure why.

When I modify other things on that file like the resources required to craft I see the update take place but market value always stays the same

if anybody would be willing to toss me some recommendations or documentation to read I would very much appreciate it as I'm not terribly well versed in all this and running out of ideas

Is there a way for them to auto collect ammo when drafted like in Yayo's ammo mod?

Yeah the primitive ammo is bugged, I was rather confused for a bit. No worries I'll just look for industrial weapons for the time being.

Great mod! On top of the issue with the primitive ammo crafting, I think that it would be great if just accepted woody materials rather than just wood, that way you can make it out of bones if you have those sort of mods.

Primitive Ammo is missing the <fixedIngredientFilter>, preventing it from actually being crafted. o7 Fixed it on my end, but it was frustrating me a bit.

my bow from elf expanded doesnt shot when because there isnt any ammo. i dont know if it is because of the rpg style hud or because of the elf mod. but i got a legendary that i cant use. it is very anoying

My bad, looks like it was some sort of fuckery with Vanilla Combat Reloaded

I dunno, something is just not working. No one wants to pick up ammo. Even if you force shove ammo into their inventories, the guns don't get loaded. In the mod config, tried to flip a switch on one gun from "can use industrial" to "requires ammo" and suddenly it was able to shoot, but it would not spend any ammo. Please fix the mod, it's not usable in this state.

I seem to have trouble with this mod in odyssey, colonist don't seem to want to load ammo for the guns they have despite it being the type needed. Look forward to when this is updated and fixed as this is one of my favorite mods!

Further testing, the "Requires Ammo?" button actually doesn't do anything and just breaks the weapon configuration altogether. "Can Use x ?" works for both categories if anyone is having trouble. Assuming this is just a bug but this makes it a bit easier to understand the bug and get by it.

Correction, the "Requires Ammo?" box causes the problem. Clicking this causes the weapon to bug out on that type of ammunition unless reloaded

For some reason in mod settings, changing the ammunition type on a weapon permanently ticks the weapon able to use that ammunition. Reselecting the option instead flicks to the other tick box vice versa. Only way to fix it is to reload default settings. Both tick boxes can't be disabled once enabled.

thank you, good work!

- Due to removal of Ammunition Bench in Framework. Ammo require specific vanilla benches. Higher tier require higher tier crafting benches obviously.
Examples : Spacer Machining, Ultra Fabrication, Industrial Smithy and so on.
- Ultra and Archotech ammo can be rewarded
- Patched vanilla turrets to use ammo for refueling as well since the new CompProperties_Refuelable allows multiple items.
- Autocannon turret uses explosive ammo (Vanilla Steel)
- Mini turret uses industrial ammo (Vanilla Steel)
- Sniper turret uses Spacer ammo (Vanilla Uranium)
- RocketswarmLauncher uses explosive ammo (Vanilla Chemfuel)

- Updated to 1.6, updates henceforth only for 1.6. Previous versions kept as is in most cases.
- Added vehicle patches kudos to my awesome discord members
- Made some default ammo assignments for some grenades.
- Smart weapons from Rimsenal use industrial ammo instead of spacer as per default.
- Halved all ammo productions from 150 to 75 for those who had 150. Also lowered recipe cost.
- Removed Uranium cost from Spacer ammo.
- Can now produce ultratech ammo from Plasteel and Uranium.
- Updated ammo costs to reflect the new production cost. It's mostly cheaper.
- Industrai/Explosive ammo requires now Gunsmithing research
- Spacer ammo requires now Machining research
- Ultratech ammo requires Fabrication research

for some reason pawn raiders with grenades and molotovs don't spawn with an ammo bag so they can't use their grenades and molotivs.. anyone experienced this?

Seems to desync in MP now when pawns try refilling kits or touching ammo

Do pawns with ranged weapons automatically pick up ammo?

@SalmonToastie - I'd also love a way to configure mag capacity per gun. Sadly it seems to be a rare feature to find.

@macintosh1257 you checked to have a quiver or a container like item than holds the ammo inside?

I can't pick up my primitive arrows.

This is my modlist: https://i.postimg.cc/FFqbNpLN/Screenshot-186.png

Does this have a way to change mag capacity based on the gun?

Is there a way to make ultratech ammo? I added this in mid-save and now none of my guns can be shot because I can only make up to spacer ammo

thanks!

@Worgensnack

if you want it fixed, add this tag to primitive ammo recipe
<fixedIngredientFilter>
<thingDefs>
<li>WoodLog</li>
</thingDefs>
</fixedIngredientFilter>

@Punchface the STRONK how did you manage to fix it? I don't really know what I'm doing when it comes to mod files

I was going to mention the same thing, it says something like "ingredients needed: wood, tox wood" and won't let me craft even though I've got plenty of wood

Seems to be incompatible with Biomes: Polluted Lands. My guess is that Toxwood added by that mod breaks the recipe.

I had a problem with Neolithic Ammo not having any valid ingredients, the mod works fine on its own so probably an incompatibility somewhere in my list. But I noticed that Neolithic Ammo was missing the fixed ingredient filter that all the others had in the Recipe xml, once added it works just fine.

im tad confused aswell as the guns stop firing after awhile, and for the sniper rifle it just dosn't wanna shoot I have industrial ammo 180 max for the large kit for all of my pawns and only few will shoot ive checked every gun they all require industrial ammo so idk whats going on ?

can you make a patch where it uses the reload systeme of yayo combat ? it dosn't seem to wanna work with its reload ammo systeme

idk if it matters, but I commissioned a mod to use this ammo; https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3361850760

Hi there, I modified my local copy of this mod to add another ammo type. Just wanted to stop in and say thank you for making the code so readable and easy to use.

thank you Lime

thank you sir

I think you can turn off CE ammo and mine from this mod would just "allow firing" the weapon. it does not affect the weapon in any other way. But you need kits.

Mechs does not use ammo.

what would happen if I use this with combat extended? currently, I love how CE revamps combat, but I hate the ammo system. And I'm aware i can use generic ammo, but it just clutters research screens and is incredibly annoying. Does this mod replace CE ammo, but still use CE reloading systems or will t just break? thanks
