Aircraft Weapon / Ammo Bug

[Coconut Jonlan]

Just noticed that if you equip a craft with weapons but forget to buy ammo - the weapons will not be re-armed if you subsequently buy ammo at a later date- you need to de-equip - then re-equip the weapons in order to arm the weapons and make the craft active.

I don't think it's a bug. As you can have several types of ammo for a weapon (like Shiva). How should it determine which one should be equipped? I think it's good as it is.

the weapons I have equipped only use 1 type of ammo so iy almost crtainly is a bug - not a major one tho

Having to remove a weapon just to arm it is certainly not a good thing, as this takes time.

You don't have to remove it but select the (equipped) weapon and add an ammo for it. He complains it's not automatically added.

You're right geever  -never realised I could do that - still you would expect your craft to be automatically rearmed as soon as there is ammo in the stores no?

Like I said - it's not a major bug, and knowing it's there means I can avoid it in future - and oddly enough I seem to recall original xcom doing something similar
