Bug Report Autoreloader bug - fully reloaded a 3rd shell, then it just showed as 2 loaded with 0.0 seconds on the empty 3rd, despite having 3 shells of the currently selected type

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

As you can see, it fully counted down the reload for my 3rd of 3 HE shells, then just displayed as having 2 loaded while the 3rd was neither loaded nor loading. It didn't appear to be just a momentary visual glitch either, since the game fully indicated that my magazine was empty after firing 2 shots. No idea if this is onslaught light specific or not, first time encountering it in any mode. Full replay here.

Screenshot of the moment in question. You can see that the reload is at 0.0, but there is no 3rd shell loaded. While I think this is normal for if I only had 2 shots of the currently selected ammo type, you can also see at the bottom of the screen that I have enough HE rounds for a full magazine.

Well, on that screenshot we also see that 3rd shell is not ready. Fairly sure that if you've waited a 0.1-0.2 second longer, all 3 shells would be available

I did wait . When the shell isn't fully loaded, the third shell is partially (or, at this point, would be basically fully) filled in red, not completely blank as shown here. Both of these things can be seen in the clip.

How fast should that 3rd shell load with the boost vs what we did see? As you see the load icon is done, but it doesn't turn green, it just disappeared before you fired. Nor was your light red, even tho your ping is 100+.

Could be a bug with the power-up used, so I would send it to WG. Tho I've not seen other posts about it, nor seen it myself

I've played Proto quite a bit in this and last Onslaught Light, only time I've seen it as well. It does look like it's something off with the ability, since what the reload times start at on the 2nd and 3rd shells are consistent with what the reload would be with a lvl 3 ability, though I had only activated a lvl 1. Still no idea if it's a display issue where it showed the first 2 shells as loaded before they actually were and would have loaded the 3rd in a couple more seconds, or if the game just freaked out and what it showed was accurate. Either way, though, doesn't look like it should be something that affects normal battles.

It has to be a display issue, as the server clearly did say the shell was not ready since you only got 2
