(1) Highlight player kills [ *On | Off ] 

(2) Add player equipped ammo to player kills [ *On | Off ] 

(3) Minimum ammo add [ *0 | 2 | 4 | 8 ] 

(4) Maximum ammo add [ 8 | *16 | 32 ]

Detail Operator Notes 

What is a Player Kill ? There is a change from Fallout 76 behaviour which normally includes any actors the player tags above the fXPDeathRewardHealthThreshold value. This corpse highlight and ammo add function only includes actors where the player LANDS THE FINAL KILLSHOT to help you avoid cheezing the game and drowning in ammo, altho the area loot function will find ANY dead actor or ashpile in the configured radius regardless of killer for EZ QOL.

The add ammo function adds a random ammount of the ammo (between min and max values) used by whatever weapon the player had equipped when they kill the actor. It can not add ammo for weapons that do not respond to Weapon.GetAmmo() like melee (d-uh !). It also does not add fusion cores if using a gatling lazer, substituting fusion cells just like Fallout 76, but it does not know about any other custom high value ammo (338 Lapua Magnum ?) which will still be added to kills.

The area loot corpses function automatically transfers all area loot to the player by default, which unfortunately triggers a notification for each item added to the player inventory. If you set [ Open area loot container ] to pick  out individual items, understand that anything left in the container on exit will be cleared/deleted including unique and quest items because the word "anything" actually does mean ANYTHING and the word "deleted" does mean DELETED . If you are prone to fcuking up and then crying and/or blaming others DO NOT USE THIS OPTION (of course that type is unlikely to actually read this warning, so yeah whatever).

The area loot corpses function is triggered by an AddActivate menu perk on dead actors and ashpiles. An object can only have one additional AddActivate menu option, so if you have other mods adding activate menu options to those objects nothing will be shown. If there is a conflict and you dont want to remove the "other" mod, then the Area Loot function and bind the AreaLoot console command to a hotkey.
