[FEATURE] Repacking mechanic to ArmA
Feedback, NormalPublic

Description

Game Version number: 1.3.0.157
Modded?: No

Issue Description: The title says it all.
Day'z has an amazing magazine repacking mechanics, it would be amazing to see something similar in ArmA.

But what I'm really asking for is: Add any magazine repacking mechanism. I'm sure I'm not the only one that throws used ammo magazines on the floor, which increases lag.

how does the DayZ repacking mechanic compare to the ArmA3 ACE mod implementation (repacks all magazines of the same type via a progress bar; takes about one second per bullet), or that of the Reforger ACE mod (manually drag partial magazines on top of one another; instantaneous)?

@speedwaystar If it is a milsim it would be toggleable just like ArmA 3 (difficulty settings).

RECRUIT - Instantaneous repack (your suggestion)
REGULAR - Repack with progress bar
VETERAN - More time on progress bar?
ELITE - Dayz's repacking mechanism, bullet by bullet.

Just like arma 3 toggling some of the difficulty settings to RECRUIT makes your UI, your bullet count and fatigue dissapear.

But, for now, because there's no difficulty settings, just like I wrote on the above post, just add something so we can repack, even it being dragging to instantaneously repack.

Yes, there's a mod that can do that, but this should be embedded on the game.

Bohemia, take notes from this mod: https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/611CB1D409001EB0-ACEMagazineRepack

Great idea!

That's what's really missing sometimes.

For the levels i would say :
Veteran - Time depends on the amount of bullets to change (saying 2 half-full mags take more time than 2 almost empty mags)
