X = Current Ammo (Maximum of 30) Y = Ammo left So when you activate the reload sequence... if X=24 and Y=60, then X=30 and Y=54 if X=15 and Y=4, then X=19 and Y=0 if X=19 and Y=15, then X=30 and Y=4 I have been trying and trying to get this working and to no avail. All of the solutions I made work, but they require a ton of if/else statements and I know there is a much more simple way of doing this. So, anyone have any ideas?

Thanks MasterQ32, With your permission would I be able to add this to a contribution I am making? Essentially, its a big contribution with code snippets and other useful things for beginning and advanced programmers alike. With credit going to you of course.
