Manual reload not implemented?
Impossible to manually reload guns? weird ammo management system here, not a fan of it so far. I enjoy everything except this weird choice of auto reload on pick ups.

there is no reload, if you have ammo, you can shoot endlessly until it runs out. the game doesn't "auto reload on pickup," it just doesn't reload at all

There is no manual reload for Sprawl, we instead allow the player to have the max ammo count available to them at all times. Getting head shots or hitting enemies on weak spots can help replenish ammo as you play the game.

In first few encounters I had ammo reserves for dual pistols and dual smg's but the game did not initiate an auto reload, it stayed on red indicator on screen with nothing in magazines and I had to face enemies with sword because I couldn't fire and eventually died.

When looking at the Weapon ammo UI, the top number is the available ammo for the weapon, the bottom number is the max ammo count the weapon can carry. When the top number is at zero and red it indicated there is no more ammo available.

If what you are seeing is not this then please by all means reach out again so we can investigate what the issue could be.

Yes, top number was red and I couldn't use any guns. Guess I just ran out of ammo back then. Still felt kinda frustrating running out of ammo this early into the game and having to deal with remaining enemies with only the melee attack lol.

Sorry, I think this isn't great UI. I think maybe a simple slash somewhere between the numbers would make it more clear. Definitely looks like an ammo reserve.

Just had this issue. It should be very clear that the number is the max amount of ammo you *can* have instead of putting it where the reserve ammo is in every other FPS game. Almost thought y'all just forgot to put a reload and refunded, thank god I found this thread.
