So basically after updating to 1.4.124, these are some things i never noticed before.

My Current build is that of the scientist i do use gatling laser and have the perk that allows the fusion cores to last longer. So

After update, it seems all my fusion cores have been separated into catagories depending on how much is left out of 100. So id have like a few with 3/100 or 30/100 or 60/100 and a few 100/100. I never really noticed this before, i thought they were all just bunched together and a hidden mechanic organized them n such.

Now its like when im in my suit and have my gatling laser if i equip the 30/100 ones i get 249 ammo in my gatling laser and if i run it dry it uses up that fusion core, however if i reload before running out of the 249 laser ammo, it does not use it up. -Annoying.

Also if i use the fusion core as a grenade and drop it , while still having more fusion cores equiped it will not reload my gattling laser with the current remaining equipped fusion cores, and will say "Missing Required Ammo" which is bull**** because this never happened before and i still have fusion cores counted for , i have to un equip my gatling laser and then re equip it for it to register the core and continue to use it- Very Annoying.

If i equip my 100/100 fusion cores then i have the 500 count ammo and it goes back to taking forever for me to go through a fusion core - I like this alot, However i have not tryed using a fusion core of my 100/100 as a grenade *obviously* to see if it would then reload my weapon without any such issues.

Let me know What i am missing or if this is confusing, sorry for any grammar errors. Cheers.

ive never used the gatling laser before, but ive sold/bought enough power cores to know that when buying/selling, the cores are separated based on how much of the core is left, so maybe its just something you've never noticed till now

are you playing on PC, xbox or playstation?

PC. But Before, i would have like 20+ Cores and it would show them on my gun/suit. i dont remember looking in my inventory, and this may be before ANY updates like the initial release. or actually i remember updating to avoid being stuck in terminals. So either way id have 20+ cores on suit/gun counter for ammo. And it would work fluid and flawless, now if i eject one my gun says missing ammo required, even though i still have more....and forces me to open up pip boy un equip and re equip gun. And its bugged aswell with some fusion cores being less then 100/100, giving me 249 shots, and then becoming completely drained, insted if i reload at 1 shot left, it just goes back up to 249 instead of 500 and does not drain a core nor count as one consumed >.<, Very frusterating. So basically i got a bunch of hoops to jump through to enjoy the game again. Super lame . Cant be using my perk for fusion core grenades, gotta pay alot closer attention to ammo count, gotta organise my fusion cores some weird special way now....super lame
