Gun - Ammo Count

but recently from both Pilot and Gunner seats the ammo count selector is automatically changing from 10 rounds to 20 rounds.

Under what conditions? Randomly? When swapping seats? When George is instructed to take the gun?

Raptor,

I do not use George to shoot for me.  I will Pilot into a hover then swap to front seat.  In a hover is the only time I let George be the Pilot so that I can practice shooting from the front seat.

At this moment I am unsure, I just notice that I am shooting 20 round bursts when I did not select this and I had checked earlier or had fired earlier that the gun was set to 10 rounds.  So all of the above, I guess.  I will see if can pinned it down better.  I does happen in both the Pilot and Gunners seat.

Does it happen to you?

Keep in mind that the burst limit setting is different for each seat.  So if I set the burst limit to 10 on the WPN page in the back seat, it won't change it for the font seat.

Now, if you set it to 10 in the front seat, go to the back seat, and then return to the front seat, George CPG may have changed it to 20 if his burst limit setting in the AI interface tool is set to 20, even if you didn't have him shoot something with it.

Yeah well...

George is the best Apache pilot I have flown with in the game by far, when it comes to a stable hover.  Maybe he is also a prankster!

 

I am not touching the burst limit select button until I notice that it is selected to 20.   To my knowledge, it was always 10 by default until Open Beta 2.7.12.23362 patch.

Just wondering, if it happening to other people?

I have kind of narrowed this down, but I do not know how to replicate as of yet. 

This is happening as part of the refuel / rearm process.  I just have not figured out the formula that triggers it.

 

I notice it happening in my SP mission that I use for training.  I have ALLOT of targets positioned close to a FARP / close to Batumi.  So part of this process is running out of missiles, rockets and gun ammo.  When that happens I land at the FARP or at Batumi and refuel /  rearm.   I can do this several times over the course of taking out all the targets.

I  only use the AI George as the pilot when I am the Gunner to fire Hellfires and the gun.  I also fire rockets and the gun with me as Pilot.  The AI George does not get to shoot at anything.

If i remember correctly, CPG George default burst has been always 20 rounds, if from pilot seat you open the George menu it always was 20 by default.
