Ability to drop ammo for teammates in ZS

I just noticed you can drop ammo clips for others in TTT, and thought "Oh wow, this would be awesome for ZS".

How hard would it be able to create/port a similar script like the one in TTT?

I haven't looked at anything but if it's doable there most likely doable in ZS

I thought in ZS you could empty ammo clip, doesn't that drop ammo? Never tried myself. But, yes this would be a good idea.




Thank you Marie for the sprite.

The empties the current clip back into your inventory, not dropping ammo.

 :thumbsup:

I have seen other servers with this and it was really succesful, only thing i'm worries about is that when people get ammo from ammo boxes, they could just spam tiny bits of ammo everytime and lag out the server...Or just simply be a ammo runner and help out other teammates before they die...Good things and bad things...

You would probably have to make sure it wouldn't be abused...

e.g. someone gets ammo regen, and drops all their ammo for their weapons and picks it up with their most powerful one

Or just distinguish ammo types, so you can't drop a clip of 50 P90 rounds and pick it up as 50 grenades.

Even though that would be pretty hilarious.

I said to make it like TTT, where you drop the ammo BOXES (Like Pistol, SMG, Shotgun, ect. Idk how Cade kits or genades would work though).

Just make the boxes no collide with the world. The only reason it would cause lag is if the server has to make calculations on hundreds of boxes and their physics.

When you drop grenade ammo, just show it as a grenade on the floor.
