Amount of bullets, connection chains

[kettenschutz 9]

Hi!

I just want 2 ask 2 questions, newbie questions

1. Is it possible to check the amount of ammo in a pistol or rifle clip?

Maybe there is a total of 8, but only 2 left in this clip. This way i could replace it with a new one ive found

2. What does the connection symbol mean? If its red or yellow

Are these connection issues on MY side or on the servers?

Thanks :)

Seeing as you don't know which clip is loaded, you can't really tell which clip the bullet count is detailing. The only way you can know is looking at the green bar on ammo clip icons.

Yellow chain means the server is confused about the packets that it's sending, Red chain means that there is a connection issue. Either is bad so try not to move too far or do too much with changing your inventory unless the chains are gone.

Which green bar do you mean?

Theone in the upper right if the weapon is equipped?

Ah, there is another thing

Sometimes on the right of the screen, appears a strange white icon i cant described. Its above the bonebreak-icon position

This item disappears after a short duration. Couldnt find something in the wiki ?!?!

That's probably the shock icon. Shock will go away on its own, but can sometimes last for quite awhile.

I believe that to be a fracture or sprain symbol. Although it seems to have no effect when it happens.

Okay found it on the dayz-wiki

Thanks to all :-)
