Happy you liked the mod. I didn't want the mod to transfer all the ammo types that the player holds. That is why a lower limit is needed, so you have to give the follower some ammo (of a given type) in order for the automatic transfer to start. I could perhaps have chosen 1 unit, but for some reason I chose 10 units.. Perhaps because I thought that if you transfer 10 units to a follower, it is because you want that follower to use the ammo.
If they have 5 bullets left, I won't give them any? Correct.
What a fantastic idea, thank you. And very clever to do the range to help control it. I feel the same way, I find their ai on ammo annoying, but far more annoying to eliminate the realism and the fun of having to manage ammo. I wonder if you could even trigger an audio file of them saying something about ammo?? Thanks again, great mod.
It would surely improve the mod adding a sound effect. An audio file could also be triggered if both the player and the follower has less than 20 units of any given ammo type. Something like "Hey ... we are running low on XX ammo" I will put it on the list for version 02. Again thanks for the reply.
Lol I was going to say don't give them a Fat-man but yeah if you give followers weapons to just carry due to carry limit I can Imagine this could cause ammo check to give them ammo for weapons you'd rather they not use thus get nuke to the face.
If your follower has 10 or less units of a given Ammo then the Ammo transfer check will not transfer any ammo from the player to the follower. Ammo is only transfer if the follower has between 10 and 50 units. So it is safe to let your follower carry weapons.
This is genius. I'm constantly shuffling ammo to them to shed weight in survival. Now I just need to give them enough to get this to move ammo to them as I pick it up.

I do have a question: why is the lower limit 10? So, if they have 5 bullets left, I won't give them any?

It should be possible to download the mod with the manager now :-)
