Reloading Weapon Magazines on Hardpoint Retraction

[GODofDUTY83]

Once harpoints retract, weapons reload to max magazine if ammo counts remaining permits.

Also a manual reload magazine option in the same place as power on/off or repair would be nice.

Even if retracting hardpoints forced a reload, I'd be down for that. Being able to double tapping the 'deploy/retract hardpoints' key to force the weapons to go through a full reload cycle (unless the magazine was fully loaded) would be very nice imo.

So, I take it there is no way to force a partial reload?

Nope, not without expending ammo in to nothing.

I waste so much frag ammo on half clips, because if the clip isn't full, frags DPS is pants.lol
So if they don't all fire off, I fire the remaining in to space before the empties can reload, to make sure my next pass has 3 shots on all guns.

My idea was to make the autoloader effect apply to retracted hardpoints, meaning you have to wait a bit for the "magazines" to fill up instead of a forcing a reload cycle by just "cocking" your hardpoints with a double tap on the toggle. More tactical and balanced in my mind.

Reloading partially spent magazines is a feature I'd like to have so much that I'd love to even bind a key to it, if possible.
