Ammo



Most game weapons require ammo (ammunition) in order to be fired. Each weapon contains a small amount of ammo when picked up; additional ammo is provided by ammo pickups and dropped by defeated zombies. Duplicate weapons function as ammo pickups, if they can be picked up.

The player can carry only a limited amount of each type of ammo, though certain items or powerups may raise these limits (see below). When a limit is reached, the player is temporarily unable to collect ammo pickups of that type. If he collects an ammo pickup which would raise his total stock above the maximum, he receives only enough to reach the maximum; the extra ammo disappears.
