This is a case where it is likely the custom mod/mutator should be changed to fix this issue as there doesn't appear to be an issue in the stock code here.

I found a suspicious code in KFInventoryManager.
'local byte MagAmmoCount;' of 'simulated function final BuyAmmo( float AmountPurchased, EItemType ItemType, optional byte ItemIndex, optional bool bSecondaryAmmo )' and
'byte ClientAmmoCount' of 'reliable server final private function ServerBuyAmmo(int AmountPurchased, byte ClientAmmoCount, byte ItemIndex, bool bSecondaryAmmo)' lines
are these not relevant?

As far as I know, it is not intended for ammo pools to go this high and that is what Yoshiro is saying.

It's a developer's preference.. takes less RAM.
But with the current sizes of RAM I don't really get how it matters.
The number of waves possible in the game is also a byte.. which means after wave 254 you win!

I know, Magazine and SpareAmmo are already int variable. the important thing is title and contents of top.
