Well, I figured it out without throwing in a breakpoint. What was happening is that CBasePlayer calls a function named ItemHolsterFrame which reloads non-active weapons after 3 seconds or when you hit the reload key. Since normally you'd never see the game siphon ammo away to a non-active weapon, it looked like a bug. The way around it is simply to comment out the call to ItemHolsterFrame in CBasePlayer. It has absolutely no adverse effects on gameplay that I can tell. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
