At least not here - yet (about 1/2 way through the map).
That's not what I'm seeing. My primary squad has 1215 rounds of 9mm standard in the squad stash, in 2 full stacks of 500 and a partial stack of 215.Tampa_Gamer wrote: Thu Jul 27, 2023 12:01 pm Also, I get why they streamlined the squad stash for ammo but its a bit lean in total amount (IRL a squad of six soldiers averaging 6 extra magazines @ 30 each would have roughly twice (1,080) the amount of what they allow stacked (500) for the squad in game). Also, if you take all in a sector when you are close to the limit it doesn't leave the extra in the laying in the sector stash - it is lost
If you're up for modding, take, in a butcherly manner, a look at this: Ammo better icons and stack 750. It lets you see ammo types at a glance (no more squinting at the tiny writing on the tiny box), and increases stack size. Or, for simpler installation, the version on Nexus.Tampa_Gamer wrote: Thu Jul 27, 2023 12:01 pmAt least not here - yet (about 1/2 way through the map).

oh, Wow - OK I will go back a save or two and test again - I want to be wrong about this.Max Peck wrote: Thu Jul 27, 2023 12:23 pm That's not what I'm seeing. My primary squad has 1215 rounds of 9mm standard in the squad stash, in 2 full stacks of 500 and a partial stack of 215.
Yes, but I never had more than one LMG in a squad and any merc carrying it also had a good ranged weapon too, so the LMG was only used for parts of combat. In fact I wasn't happy with LMG usage as the firer had to go prone for arc coverage and that left them without cover protection. I also didn't have someone who was really good with it I ended up scrapping them in the mid-game. During the late game I got Fauda who has the Heavy Duty talent, the Heavy Weapons trait and the Ironclad perk, the combination of which meant she was just the person to use the LMG effectively.
, even though I just got F1® Manager 2023 installed and I'm ready to jump into it. However, in an interesting variation of the OO effect, people talking about this game is making me want to keep playing it. Oh well, back to the diamond mines... 
. Oh well, I got a lot out of that $6,999, 
The chicken should be shot since, as far as I can tell, it is useless at hunting treasure.
Wouldn't that logic put KFC out of business?coopasonic wrote: Thu Jul 27, 2023 5:38 pmThe chicken should be shot since, as far as I can tell, it is useless at hunting treasure.

Very nice.- Diamond mines deplete to 50% income on First Blood difficulty; 20% on Commando difficulty; 0% on Mission Impossible (Community Suggestion)
I'm guessing that this refers to emplaced machine guns, not squad-level heavy weapons.- Machine gun damage reduced
- Machine gun number of interrupt attacks are now based on current AP not max AP (calculated at end of turn) (Community Suggestion)
I think it is for the squad machine guns as well. If your guy moves and then goes prone to set up a field of fire, they get less interrupt attacks than if they didn't move at all. That's how I read it.Blackhawk wrote: Thu Aug 03, 2023 1:08 pmI'm guessing that this refers to emplaced machine guns, not squad-level heavy weapons.- Machine gun number of interrupt attacks are now based on current AP not max AP (calculated at end of turn) (Community Suggestion)
Firing the weapon during your turn should also deplete the amount of AP available for overwatch/interrupts.jztemple2 wrote: Thu Aug 03, 2023 1:57 pmI think it is for the squad machine guns as well.

Same (or similar). I found my limited time with the game to be mentally taxing in ways I wasn't anticipating - it required more focus and brain power than I was capable of providing. So instead, I became the Bat. Well, Bat-adjacent. I'm happy to let this game cook a bit more and get some patches. It didn't seem like it desperately needed them, but I'm guessing it's going to get better and better with some more fine-tuning. Still have zero regrets being an early adopter and supporting the developers.Blackhawk wrote: Thu Aug 03, 2023 2:32 pm And yeah, despite being an early adopter, I'm way behind the rest of you on this. Things have just been crazy amounts of busy lately, and I've been pretty out of sorts, both of which have affected how much I game.
Being prone with a field of fire leave them open to being shot at without cover, however I did find one merc with the trait/whatever that he only lost half his AP if he stood and moved. He also had a trait that made him better with machine guns. So he became my one and only LMG operator, although he had a sniper rifle just in case.Blackhawk wrote: Thu Aug 03, 2023 2:17 pm I was under the impression that squad level machine guns were already of questionable utility.
Ah-ha! So that's what happened.Carpet_pissr wrote: Fri Aug 04, 2023 12:16 am Apparently the latest patch broke combat movement. Oops!! Guess I will now wait until 1.04.
After the patch to 1.03, the movement range is incorrect when you schedule a change in stance during your movement. The yellow outline will show you being able to go to a position (with the feet icon), and then when you click to go there, there's just a soft "beep", the yellow and blue outlines flash briefly, and then nothing else happens.
If you change stance first, and then try to move there (instead of using CTRL-Z and CTRL-X to schedule a change in stance at the destination), you will get a "correct" yellow outline for your new (lower) remaining AP. But of course, that's no good because now you've changed stance just to figure out where you can reach (and spent the AP).
It feels like the patch changes to "fix" AP movement w.r.t schedule stance changes isn't working correctly. I'm having to change my stance ahead of my movement and that's of course not what I want to do.
Almost 70 hrs in and just taking my time and learning by doing (e.g. consistently regretting prior decisions made on my perks) in my first play through still but having a blast (along with my son who never played the original two JA but loves it now).Max Peck wrote: Fri Aug 04, 2023 1:07 am Apparently there is an issue with AP costs for movements involving a stance change at the end of the move. I've been playing since the patch dropped and haven't had any problems, but that's probably because I'm not trying to do the thing that has been broken. I didn't even know that "scheduling a stance change during a move" was a thing.
"Sure, but it's not supposed to work like that. You are supposed to be able to use CTRL-Z and CTRL-X to "preview" the movement and the game is supposed to calculate the AP required to get from the start to the end efficiently _and_ end up in the stance you selected, and show you the range you can reach with such a sequence. Or, you can use V to lock your stance during the movement (so that, during a confirmed movement sequence, the merc won't stand, run, and then crouch, for example).Originally posted by mr_oluap:
Not sure what is the "AP/combat movement bug" but if this helps you need to stand at the beginning of your turn if you want maximum movement range, and then keep one or two AP left if you want to crouch/prone at the end.
