Both have a time period that elapses before regeneration starts. | + | The software also tracks how many clips of ammo you are carrying, but that hasn't really been something that's been an issue for players and is probably not worth modifying. If there ever seems to be a need, the game team will make that modification anyway, regardless of research.\\ |
