Congrats, you've just discovered why most people don't use CASE.

Not really, there's no need to use CASE for ammo explosions in the first place because ammo explosions are so rare that it's rather silly to waste tonnage & slots (even at only 0.5 tons and 1 slot) to mitigate them. If ammo explosions mattered more then CASE would see more use, but since they don't matter you pretty much never see CASE used.

It is useful if you have a torso mounted gauss rifle and you're running a STD engine, but that's pretty much it.

Yeah dude that's how it works.

Never use CASE it's a waste of tonnage.

If you're talking about the opposite st exploding then it's a bug.
I've noticed recently that when I lose a st in my MDD I often also lose the LRM launcher in the other st for some reason. I'm just waiting to see if it happens a few more times to confirm it before submitting a bug report.

I'll volunteer to shoot you repeatedly if you want to test it in some private matches.

That will be the ammo being reduced to 0, not the weapon itself being destroyed.

A good reason to put an emergency 1/2 ton in the arm (see the order that ammo draws in.)

I'm pretty sure that I've had almost max ammo when it has happened before, but I thought about this and that's why I haven't reported it as a bug yet.
