Suggestion: allow 7.92x57mm to be stacked into groups of 30 instead of 10 similar to 7.62x54mmR and change the 7.92x67mm box to actually be a box instead of a magazine so you can increase the number of rounds you can give to players in a single box (which is currently 5)

Why it would be worth adding: Both rounds basically serve the same purpose gun-wise, 7.62x54mmR is usable in the mosin and dragunov, and 7.92x57 is only usable in the kar98k, yet the 7.62 round can be stacked into 30 bullets whilst 7.92 can only be stacked in 10 bullets.

Side note: 7.92 shouldn't be as rare as it is given it can only be used in the kar98k, literally the rarest ammo in the game and it's not even top tier so only being able to give out 5 bullets per 'box' script is aids

So, as the rounds are technically rarer, what if both 7.62x54mmR and 7.92x67mm are made to stack to 15 instead? So that a box is still not a lot of ammo but not just 10 or 5

x54mmR can only be stacked to 20

regular 7.62 can go to thirty

boxes for 7.62x54mmR come with 10 to begin with

that approach would not work for obvious reasons, best to just up the ammo count by five for 7.92 and let it stack to 20

7.62x39 (AK round) can stack to 120
7.62x51 (m40/FAL/garand round) can stack to 60
7.62x54mmR can stack to 30

idk if it's worth nerfing the 7.62x54 stack to 20 then buffing the 7.92 stack to match, I don't see the harm in just buffing 7.92 to a 30 stack (I don't think many people even have 30 rounds of the bullet to begin with idk why it's so rare!!!)

I have around 70 rounds of 7.92x57mm. Do you know how many inventory slots that takes up?

7.

Rifle round stack will be increased to 30

This brings up an issue I've been pondering on for a good while now, which is phasing out boxes as a whole, and allowing for rounds to use the ammo box model

And also when spawning in ammo, to be asked how many you wish to spawn - ie you can just spawn in a stack of 74 5.56 rounds, instead of having to fuck around with boxes - but that is for the future, and something I plan to do

for today, just stacks have been increased
