Halo 3 "Battery Ammo" on HCE.
Hello, i'd like to know whether it is possible to use the battery ammo like Halo 3's Energy Sword uses. By this i mean that it does not waste ammo\battery when you fire at nothing, but use ammo\battery only when striking a successful lunge. On the top left of the next image is somewhat of an example of what i want, which is as stated above, and for it to show on the HUD properly.

I think Sigma's done it, I'm not sure.
Other than them though I haven't seen anyone try it. Energy Sword isn't exactly a popular weapon in CE.

Impossible. You can't modify the ammo of a weapon unless it has a scripted name and even then it would be impossible to script a hit/no-hit check.
Unless someone has a better idea of course.

Aren't there hit effects? Can't you translate that to ammo use?

Swords are pretty pointless in CE tbqh.

Unfortunately, making a weapon like that by tags only isn't possible. Age and ammo decrement at a fixed rate, whenever the weapon is fired.
