<div class="IPBDescription">sometimes I cant shoot after reload...</div> When I empty a clip and the weapon starts reloading out of itself AND I press reload while that's happening (silly I know, but when ur being attacked by multiple skulks ur like; reload ffs!!!) then after it has reloaded I can't use it for a while! Does anyone else have this problem or is it just me? Bug report doesn't seem to take my complaint seriously...Is there any way to fix this?

    It happens to me sometimes too. I have a cable that pings 100ping, 1ghz, geforce3, no scripts. just HL-NS...

    But theres a gun problem too. When you run out of ammo with the lmg and it starts reloading, you hit switch to pistol, it waits until it finishes reloading and then switches to the pistol but the lmg is still empty for some reason <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    If you switch the weapon before reloading animation finishes, it isn't reloaded
    I'm quite sure this was in HL too so it would be up to Valve to fix it

    On a slightly related note, I have a problem with trying to build while the reload animation is playing. It doesnt finish and it doesnt cancel, it just loops over and over again until I stop trying to build.

    Sometimes I push the reload button and nothing happens , then a full clip appears <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->
    I suppose the lag cancels the animation , but it still reloads.

    Use a knife! You never ever have to reload it, AND it's fun to knife that newbie Fade that didn't choose carapace as an upgrade <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> . I haven't play a serious game as a Marine on 1 week now - I run around with a knife and tries to kill everything I see, even OC's <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> . It's fun!

    EDIT: I forgot to post this <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> : That bug is annoying sometimes. Sometimes not. Try to switch to your pistol then switch back. Hud_fastswitch "1" would help if you use the numbers and not your mouse to change between weapons.

    - a fade that didn't choose carapace is not a noob. I often choose regen. it depends on the situation
    - you can use a little script to change your weapons with the mouse wheel like in quake 3, I really prefer that.

    Yeah switching weapon while reloading aborts the reload...that's true, but that is not the problem I'm having. Could somebody carefully read and try to replicate to see if it's only me who's having this problem?:

    Empty an ammo clip on any weapon (for example lmg)
    Now the weapon will automatically reload
    Wait untill it's in the middle of it's reload animation then press your reload button
    Now try to shoot with it the second after the reload animation has ended

    When I do the above my weapon will just say 0/50 (=lmg) and not shoot or reload or anything untill after like 5 seconds. When it turns 50/0 I can shoot again.

    Please try this someone.
