I haven't had a chance to fully test this on across all my mechs but from what I can tell it only appears to be affecting my Flame Dragon (I have tried this on a Victor 9k, Atlas-D and Jenner-D). Whilst testing a new loadout in my Flame Dragon I only equipped 1 ton of ammo for the SRM-6. After firing one shot I noticed the ammo count had decreased by 10, not 6. After some digging around I did discover the "nerf" that causes Flame dragons to fire two volleys when equipped with a SRM-6, 4 in the first volley, 2 in the second. That's all I could find that mentions Flames and SRM-6 issues, but it appears that they are consuming 10 ammo per shot while still only dealing damage and showing the firing of 6 missiles. If any other Flame pilots (or anyone else noticing this) have encountered this then I guess we need to steer this to the Dev's for a fix.

I already made a topic, you probably also shoot 10 SRMs out of your SRM 6

Most likely it is shooting 5+5. My Quickdraw does that, and even shoots an lrm15 as 10+10

Put an SRM6 into a Jenner-D and it will fire 8 missiles out, and do 8 missiles worth of damage too.

Missile tubes are bugged to hell.

Yeah, I've seen SRMs fire in strange ammounts randomly. It's odd, but you do actually fire the missiles it appears.

hm, noticed a while ago I had an odd (literally) amount of ammo on my lrm20 stalker, will have to pay closer attention to see if im firing more or less than I should be.

Probably has something to do with the missile tubes, i.e. you can only fire complete salvo's out of tube arrays, so if you have 6 tubes, you fire a multiple of 6 regardless of missile rating. Anyone confirmed if it works with ssrm's as well?
