Vehicle Ammo Tracker

I would like to be able to tell how much ammo my gunners have as thier driver. This is a problem especially when I run tanks for before I know it my 15mm is almost dry as well as my main cannon.

It seems to be a problem asking the gunners to constantly yell out how much ammo they have, most don't respond till opps I am out of ammo in my chain and have a reaver on my butt.

Also would be interesting to watch the numbers go down as they unload rounds down range.

I know on the BFRs, when you scroll over the vehicle status diagram, the devs made the box bigger and it says it now. (On the test server.)

That would be a nice addition.

I like how they have it on the BFRs

I'm all for it

well after some heavy firefights, my natural instinct is to go back and rearm. besides, you should be communicating with your gunner while you do this, so you should know when you're gonna run out of ammo.

Yes, while communication is key, there is no reason to do more of it than necessary.

I prefer to talk about target aquisitions than whether we need to retreat to rearm...course it dun really matter for me exactly, my gunner and I almost always end up just abandoning the tank before it runs out and engaging on foot.
