turret as ammo dispenser?

    Heard that when you have tank mines equipped you could somehow make your turret dispense ammo to others. If this is true how can you make your turret into an ammo dispenser?

    Equip turret, press 'B'. It goes to ammo dispenser. Apparently it acts like a level 3 ammo dispenser, non-upgradeable.

    Yup... Works great... and... by equip, that means select and when holding the turret (before deploying it), hit "B" and the turret ghost will go away. You are now ready to drop ammo... Also... You can have both the turret ammo pack AND the turret deployed at the same time...

    That is correct. As default you got the ammo pack plus the turret. When you select the turret and switch to alternate firemode (default-button is 'B') you can place ANOTHER ammopack besides the standard one. So you are capable of placing two independent ammopacks at the same time.
    When you change the normal ammopack for tankmines you can still place the one from the turrets alternate mode.

    Just sucks that you can't drop ammo as simple as dropping a mine.
