How do auto loaders work

[XxNightcoregamingxX]

i am wanting to know if there are space requirements for the auto loaders? my auto loader doesn't ever seam to use the ammo i fill it with. what am i doing wrong the loader is in my base. does it need open air like the drone to work?

wel it needs LOS so kinda need open air, you also need to provide it with ammo

so the line of sight or open air because that makes a big difference

can it be on a different floor but with open air to the target or do i have to be able to walk from the loader to the turret

So when you put it down in the editor it will have green lines showing what it’s connected to. It can go up and down in elevation but it needs to be able to draw line of sight to it from its top.

I didn’t try putting it inside so I can’t comment on how that effects it’s performance.

But basically the auto loader turret has cameras on its top. Those cameras need to be able to see the destination. And then it has a drone fly ammo to those turrets it can see.

You can tell if it can see and load those turrets by projected green lines in the editor.
