10.5 Clip Inventory

Component: ClipInventory

This component is an inventory that goes on the Player object and is required for the use of ’ModernGun’ objects. To use, simply decide how many ammo types you would like. Then, input that as the ’Size’ for both Num Clips and Max Clips. Finally set a maximum and initial value for each. So, if machine gun bullets are the first ammo type, then NumClips[0] represents the number of machine gun clips we currently have, and MaxClips[0] represents the maximum number of machine gun clips we can have. A clip is an object that contains many bullets. So this gives a ’realistic’ reloading system where partial clips are discarded (clips are tracked instead of individual rounds).
