I couldn't find the answers to these while perusing psu, so I was hoping some of you could help.

I've been looking for a list of vehicles someone can pilot in reinforced armor. I read that you can pilot anything with an "open top", and I believe they specifically mentioned the harasser (open top?). Anyone know which vehicles qualify?

How does the automatic reload work with weapons? If I have a supressor that can use both regular and piercing ammo - and both are in my inventory - how does it choose what to use when I reload?

What are the damage differences on those 2 ammo types on non-armored enemies?

What are all of the uses of jamming grenades? Plasma grenades?

I noticed the thumper will "keep" the unused grenades that are loaded when you reload. In other words, the grenades that are still in the weapon are not lost when you reload. Is that a property of grenades, or do any other weapons behave the same way?

Thanks to any of you that respond :D

You can wear any armor, except max, driving any vehicle.

You hit r to reload, hit x to swtich ammo type.

Jamming grenades disable turrets and set off mines they also interfer with any electronic equipment...not sure what else that means.

Plasma grenades do damage over time to anything they hit.

I don't know where you heard that but it's definately wrong. You can only pilot "open air cockpit" vehicles with reinforced armor. This includes the quads, and the heavy buggies. I'm not sure about the ANT but i don't think you can. You can however be the gunner in any vehicle.

Harasser, Empire buggy. Ballisk, Wraith (i think)

You can switch between ammo types via X, but u have to manually reload when ur out.

What are the damage differences on those 2 ammo types on non-armored enemies?
AP doesnt do as much, but i only carry 1 round of regs. and just keep that in my pistol.

What are all of the uses of jamming grenades? Plasma grenades?
Disables turret, kills mines, and stops implants from working.

I noticed the thumper will "keep" the unused grenades that are loaded when you reload. In other words, the grenades that are still in the weapon are not lost when you reload. Is that a property of grenades, or do any other weapons behave the same way?
if u mean, say u have 18 bullets in your gun and u reload, u will keep the 18 bullets.

I have driven wraiths, ANT's and AMS with inf armor. I haven't tried any of the others in my inf armor... wasn't aware of any armor restrictions.

You can drive anything in INF armor, in reinforced armor you are restricted from driving all closed cockpit vehicles including all aircraft and ant.
