Why does ammo not explode?

[justastickofbutter]

I have tested if ammo explodes in or out of storage and it doesn't, why?

[UCEY]

Because that wasn't implemented

As far as I tested, ammo does explode when receiving enough damage. At least autocannons' drums, ofc if they are filled with rounds.

And yes, you need a DLC to have this, Without DLC all weapons stuff are just decorations

Yes it explodes. My god it explodes.

I tend to build large and badly optimized ships. I get them floating in the dock area then migrate to the oil rig to finish "fitting out" so I can test the systems without fear of lag. If you jump to the oil rig and don't position your vehicle properly, it will clip through the platform. I did this with my 220 block long corvette build and uh...it suffered catastrophic damage. Everything detonated from stem to stern like one of Beatty's battlecruisers at Jutland...

I clipped the rail bridge with the mast on my warship at 32 knots, and the impact detonators on the torpedo warheads I'd installed decided it was their time to shine. I learn't it was a good idea to add some kind of a safety arming circuit. :D

I should have clarified i meant cannon ammo (artillery, battle cannon, and bertha)

I do a quick test and can't make cannon ammo (artillery, battle cannon, and bertha) to explode.

You can take ammo from exploded drums

Do you own Weapons DLC?

[Guardian00]

Yes

If you really want the ammo rack detonation, I suggest hiding warheads beside or among the key ammo areas.

Also, hand held weapons, and the machine gun do not damage blocks unless loaded with AP or incendiary rounds.

Hm, I got ammo exploded on my ship when I hit the ammo stock. There was a huge boom, I must say. I used heavy autocannon tho.

[Guardian00]

ooo, I will try that tomorrow

Whats wrong with our bloody ships today? -Beatty (most likely)

[Guardian00]

Using a:

*Battle cannon with kinetic rounds I only notice explotion of bertha ammo and drums.
*Heavy autocannon I only notice explotions of ammo drums.
