I suggest that guns get their selection priority lowered, when they are out of ammunition.

Example: Sharps has 3 handguns. A Handcannon, a Mk.23 and an 9mm.
The HC shows up first when the [2] key is pressed, for selecting pistols. When the HC is empty and you switch from rifle to pistol, the empty HC shows up at first. It would be helpful, when the selection priority would switch to the Mk.23 in that case, that the order would be Mk - 9mm - HC.

I can't think of a single reason why this shouldn't get implemented.

+1 yeah, all the KF characters must have some sort of short term memory disorder... keep pulling out empty weapons before fully loaded ones :p

Then you maybe shouldn't stop that. I agree with that. That looks like a great mutator. The more people ask for that the better the chance that they implement that I guess.

There is a law of diminishing returns. I'll mention it every 6 months or so.

Yes please.

Even though I tend to drop my empty weapons to pick them up again at the end of the wave, this would be really nice. (...and there is almost always someone who goes like OH LOOK! I FOUND A <something>! :rolleyes:)

this would really organize the players inventory during the game.


I mean, its really annoying to see monsters closing in with nearly 3 ft to think and I pull out an empty gun instead of the AA12 to save myself and it get butchered for it.


so yes!! someone make this mutator.
