Is there a mod that lets vehicles reload?
Vehicles not reloading seems like the dumbest design choice I've seen in a long time. Is there a mod that fixes this? Gives them endless ammo or allow reloading?

with reload you have a artillery and enemy just die without seeing your unit

There is no such mod yet as far as I know. I hope someone figuers out how to make one soon though. Also, I don't think it would be OP if ammo cost a lot to produce and reloading took a whole turn or something like that.

There is an unlimited ammo mod now in the Workshop or on Nexus, but I think unlimited is just a little too much OP. I would like to see a vehicle earn skill points from missions and after so many points you could select an extra reload and/or auto repair for some amount of damage done to it.
You don't reload vehicles during missions, but that's fairly offset by the fact that vehicle ammo is free and replenishes after every mission.

Vehicle guns are pretty strong and if you're relying on them for most of your firepower you're probably not running your squad efficiently anyway. Scarabs are really devastating to small targets and don't have a ton of ammo because of it, but Armadillos have insane value and it gets refilled for free after every battle.

Tracking ammo feels like tedious work to me, not a fun game. I already have the mod that lets you have unlimited ammo but it's just for your troop weapons. It feels very disappointing to have a long battle and have your vehicle which takes up 3 troop slots run out of ammo and turn into a moving damage sink....

I'd settle for being able to buy a part for your vehicle that increases the ammo capacity a bit. Maybe have it be quite costly, or have some other consequence (like increased ammo but has the chance to blow up causing damage if a certain part of the vehicle is badly damaged.)

Something like that would probably be easier to balance than reloading or infinite ammo.

All the Best,

There's no real tracking, you can shoot with a Scarab 3 times that's all, and more would just make the game super easy at least up to mid game...Maybe being able to fire only 1 missile instead of 2 would make sense

The default phoenix car is also meant to be kinda ♥♥♥♥♥♥. all the faction ones have rather larger ammo pools. (though for blasting large targets I'd still take the Scarab)
