How does [CRIT_BOOST] work exactly?
Can I use [CRIT_BOOST] with ammo?
Is it possible to make ammo stick in enemies more, or does it already always stick?
Can I set how much ammo you can get from one block of metal?

Only the STICK_CHANCE tag has an effect in the ammo defs. Even if it has, sometimes it still doesn't work right. CRIT_BOOST, afaik, is not effective for ammo.

As to how much you get...  well, there's neither a SIZE or WEIGHT in the ammo defs, so I guess DAMAGE is what defines it. I get only 5 harpoons (damage 140) from a log, whereas you can get about 10-15 (I think) arrows from it.

This will hamper my mobster mod considerably. Do smelter reactions stack created ammo?

[Sean Mirrsen]

I wanted to create a sort of a machinegun, too. "Dwarven minipult".  :p Still got 25 out of each log, so I guess none of the definable parameters impact the number created in any way.

I believe a smelter reaction will create a stack of stuff, yes, so you could make a reaction that makes a hundred bullets, and they will be crammed into one stack.

The smelter reaction works. Unfortuately, the amount of ammo you get when you start adventure mode seems to be random.

[Sean Mirrsen]

Random from 30 to 40, it seems.
