Standard Ammo

Standard Ammo must be collected by players to be used. They can generally be dropped all at once from the Inventory.

Turret Ammo

Turret Ammo must be physically near a welding Turret to be used.

Trivia

Ammo dropped by players will come in boxes of 24, leaving excess rounds within the corresponding Weapons. If a player dies, these excess rounds will be lost. Ammo used to share the same behavior as Money Bags where they could only be collected and couldn't be dragged, stored, or welded. In the game files, ammo types are referred to as "Light,Med," and "Shot" for standard firearms, "Lightning,Arrow," and "Firework" for special ranged weapons, "Heavy,Cannon," and "Ballista" for turrets, and "Tesla" which is likely for the Tesla Cannon and Electrocutioner.
