Is there a way to re enable auto reload?
I haven’t played in a while and all weapons seem to require manual loading now. Which is really dumb and keeps getting me killed. I googled it and saw that apparently most players have the opposite issue of automatic reload getting them killed, but that’s saved my life more times than I can count. Is there a setting anywhere I can change to allow automatic reloading again? That’s not a nerf I can live with. If so, will it work if I join servers?

no there is no option to enable auto reload if you for example quick swapped a pistol to a crossbow it will cancel the auto reload animation if that bullet magazine is empty..also i've experienced animation bugs with the tier 1 starter bow not reloading also scoped weapons can cause this to happen..the same question also applys to when you're axe durability runs out you cannot use until you repair it

There is still auto reload. It is just cancelled if you swap weapons before the animation is 100% complete and you see the new ammo loaded.

Auto-reload is working as expected in my 19.6 game.

The only weapon to change in this regard, that I recall, is the crossbow. This was changed to not auto-reload by popular demand many patches ago.

Make sure you aren't swapping weapons, and make sure you actually have ammo for the weapon in your inventory. Maybe check any mods you are using, and verify your game files.

This is not the case. Even if you use all the ammo in a weapon’s clip, it doesn’t reload until you hit R or click again.

Strange, no weapons auto reload for me. In the case of the crossbow, that’s actually one I really want to auto reload as that is my main weapon. Apparently I’m in the minority for wanting auto reload on it though.

Just tested to make sure.

The wooden bow auto reloads.

For guns, you do not have to hit the reload button, but you do have to hit the trigger for the gun to reload. I never really noticed because i manually reload after every significant fight and during a significant fight i keep hitting the trigger anyways.
