I have used ammo trucks for suicide missions. Rarely works, but when it does it is VERY rewarding.

I've done the same myself - fun when it works !

I've also made mobile ammo containers to represent an infantry company level ammo resupply. Works pretty well except that it can't resupply most mortars.

Question for Don/Andy -

I presume there's hard coding that limits the resupply capacity, resupply distence, ammo size, and mobility of, and possibly tied into the number of men the unit has.

If it's not too difficult could I ask for some info on the hard coded restrictions - i.e. what limits what - i.e. does the number of men in the resupply unit determine the ammo size limit it can resupply or is it tied to some other variable?

Thanks ahead of time for any reply you can make - even if it's "To complex to try to explain."

I think its in the GG & the restriction is based on warhead size which is why the mortars wont resupply, no of men is irrelevant its the weapon that matters.
Sorry reread your post its the resupply unit type that matters. Ammo cannister, vehicle, dump etc. Effects range of supply, warhead size it can reload & reload speed.
