Jams often when you empty your magazine in rapid fire mode (might be in other modes as well, not sure) - you cannot reload any more after that. Throwing weapon away and picking it again solves the problem.

Confirm this happens under the current live release? The Dark Star's reload lock is removed when any animation it plays has ended, so steps to recreate this problem would be appreciated.

Yes it does. Switch to rapid fire, press LMB, do not release until the magazine is empty - voila, you can't reload any more.

This is a stinker. It specifically occurs if you empty your magazine and are still holding Fire at the time the fire animation ends. It affects all weapons, but the reload element is masked by some existing code which checks the fire animation to release the reload lock. Obviously that's not reliable for the Dark Star.

I'll have to fix that across all weapons.
