I have to correct Depri here. I originally planned to introduce a new magazine type, yes (and asked about that in IRC). However, I also want to allow the possibility to feed from ammo crates. That is why wether an item can be used as a belt (or, more generally speaking, 'external ammo source') is determined by the new flag 'AMMO_BELT' in in Items.xml. This allows shenanigans like this:

Yes, gentleman, Blood's MG is fed from a 2500-bullet box Smile

It's that simple: if the tag is set it works, if not, then not.

@H412: The gun can fire both boxes. At first, the bullets will be deducted from the external belt, after that from the internal magazine.

@Dieter: In WH40K, I plan to simply allow a crate of bolter ammo to be attached to power armor, and will put in an additional check to check that slot. Thus the Adepta Sororitas can feed their Heavy Bolters from their armor.
