=== USER MANUAL ===
Usage: reload [weapon]
Description:
Load a fresh magazine of ammunition into a weapon. If no weapon is
specified, your currently wielded gun is used. The weapon must be empty
-- you cannot reload a weapon that still has ammo loaded.
Compatible ammo is automatically found by searching your inventory,
containers in your equipment, then containers in your inventory.
The first matching ammo of the correct type is used.
Reload Time:
Weapons with a reload time begin a timed reload sequence. You see
a message when loading begins and another when it completes. You
cannot start a second reload while one is already in progress.
Weapons with no reload time load instantly.
Ammo Properties:
When ammo is loaded, the weapon inherits the magazine's properties:
Amount Number of rounds in the magazine.
Damage Type The ammo's damage type overrides the weapon's default.
Range Some ammo modifies the weapon's effective range.
Spread Some ammo modifies the weapon's rate of fire.
The ammo item is consumed when loaded. Use unload to eject a
loaded magazine back into your inventory.
Fumble:
If you are affected by shaky hands, there is a 33% chance to
fumble the reload. The ammo is not consumed on a fumble, but the
reload time is wasted.
Restrictions:
- The weapon must be a gun that accepts ammo.
- The weapon must be empty (use unload first if needed).
- You must have compatible ammo available.
- You can only reload one weapon at a time.
