ttt tfa weapons won't pick up ammo

[KarateWalrus]

Hello,

I've used the weapon placer to place a bunch of weapons from tfa base around a gmod map and when I start up the server and join it I see the weapons there and they work great, but I can't pick up any weapon ammo with any of the tfa weapons. Other weapons work fine but none of the tfa ones. The code for one of the weapons is below. I think I added the SWEP.Primary.AmmoEnt correctly. I can't pickup shotgun shells with it though.

I found out that the tfa people said there's an issue with ammo on ttt. It's screwy so if you drop a weapon it'll be picked up with full ammo. And you can't pick up ammo from the ground. I bet it could be fixed, but they don't know how of the top of their heads.

[KarateWalrus]

I also found some tfa weapons that work fine in ttt so know I'm confuzzled

[KarateWalrus]

In ttt I found you have to have the ammo ent
For example -
SWEP.AmmoEnt = "item_ammo_ar_ttt"

but then it also has to match

SWEP.Primary.Ammo = "ar2"

or you will pick up the ammo and not add it to the gun's clip
