Auto-Loader

[The Seraph of Tomorrow]

So I am seeing that the auto loader has a hook device, and just unlocked the conveyors.

How do I get the auto-loader to grab the ammo?

Basic autoloader you'll have to manually use that abiility to grab ammo.

The advanced autoloader has an area marked where it will grab ammo off of.

The autoloader will NOT automatically grab any ammo. This one you will still have to stock manually with or manually use the command ... Then it will reload your turrets.

For automation you will have to unlock the advanced autoloader and advanced ammo maker... ez pz

Ah, that's odd because they added a grabber to the basic auto loader model which is why I was confused.

That hook is for the activated ability of the normal auto loader, which lets you grab any item, from anywhere on the map you can aim at, even through walls.
If it is an ammo box or artillery shell it will automatically be stocked.
Anything else will just be dropped next to the autoloader.

One of the things about the "hook" command for both the advanced auto loader or the normal auto loader is they can grab anything on the map you can target with your mouse that you can pick up normally. What does this mean?

So those drones with the power banks on the side of them that fly away when you get to close being a pain to get the power banks from? No problem! use your auto loader to snag those power banks from those drones without alerting the drones at all.

During recovery day does some loot go flying out of bounds or into an area you can't reach? No problem! again hook them with the auto loader!

I did not know that was a thing, interesting.

Question, does the loader works if you cover the green line?

if you mean putting something in the way: nope... the green line tells you which turrets the loader can supply... if the green line vanishes, the turret wont be reloaded^^

if you mean boxing in the green line without breaking the line of sight of the loader to the turret, then: yes, yes you can box in the entire contraption^^
