Ok! When you have no ammo and no clips left, you can unequip it and equip and you will have full ammo. Now I know why this happens. When you equip a gun it checks what gun you want to equip and sees what ammo and clips to have in it, when you unequip it it goes to nothin. Ex. - .9mm 0/0 - equip it and - 5/35 - use all ammo and clips -0/0 but!! unequip and equip...5/35!!! how can i make it thatit knows how much ammo and clips i used, like use half of the .9mm, start to use the AK47, come back and still have half the .9mm...not full ammo....i hope thas not confusing...

If I get what you're saying, you could just give the guns each a "remaining_bullets" or something var, to keep track of how many bullets are available for the gun type. Decrement it each time you fire off a shot.

If not that, show us some relevant code.

Well, the way i do it is have 3 variables, the clip in its full amount, how many bullets are in current clip, and the total amount of ammo..

Yea... you might want to recheck your varibles.

this is my first attempt at helping someone, i will most likely fail, but here goes

obj/var
   clip=0
   ammo=0
mob/var
   equipped=list()
obj/proc/guncheck()
   if(src.ammo==0)
      if(src.clip>0)
         src.ammo+=35
         src.clip-=1
         usr<<"[src.clip] left"
      else
        usr<<"You dont have any clips left"
   else
      usr<<"You dont need to reload"
 
     else
        usr<<"You have no clips left!"
obj/gun1
   clips=5//put as many clips as you want here, and have
// items that will let you add clips to it, such as extra //clips =P
   ammo=35//same thing here
   verb/Shoot()
     if(src.equipped==1)
        if(src.ammo>0)
           src.ammo-=1//do you firing thing here. i would
 //write you
//one, but i think you have one already (my guess)
           usr<<"[src.ammo] left"
     else
         usr<<"Better reload!"
   verb/Reload()
      guncheck()
   verb/equip()
      if(src in usr.contents)
         usr.equipped+=src
         usr.contents-=src
      else
         set hidden=1
   verb/remove()
      if(src in usr.equipped)
         usr.contents+=src
         usr.equipped-=src
      else
         set hidden=1
mob/Stat(mob/M)
   if(statpanel("inventory"))
      stat("inventory --")
      if(src) stat(src.contents)
   if(statpanel("equipped"))
      stat("equipped --")
      if(Src) stat(src.equipped)

No put usr in proc.
Do not use ==o or ==1 for boolean vars. (!var) for 0, or (var) for 1.
Don't use +=1 if you're going to add 1 to something such as a variable, instead use ++.
