if you are cloaked, enemy SG's shoot you.

the best way i can explain it is that your cloak dont have enemy FF (friend or foe) tags like disguises do, so the SG percieves you as an enemy.

ok thx for that, any ideals why when i am disguised as engineer and not cloaked the sentry gins sometimes still shoot and kill me ?

1st: Don't cloak near SG's.

2nd: Weapons should auto reload and the single shotgun doesn't have animations.

3rd: Not sure about the ammo thing.

That's all I got.

ok thx, so if i had cloaked near to a out of site sentry gun then un cloaked before i go to sabotage, it got confused then, also only reason i asked about reload was because there was a reload bind in options for FF, thx

The SG shooting you while you are disguised might be a bug, and the reason the reload bind is there, it's for people that don't want to use auto reload.

yes i dont use auto reload but when i press reload it dont work, am i meant to turn off auto reload somewhere then ? as usually auto reload only works when your empty, what i mean is when its not empty and i press my reload key nothing happens.

Most weapons in FF are loaded round by round, so they will start reloading before they are empty, and allow you to fire in the middle of reloading.

With autoreload, it will reload whenever it gets a chance (as soon as you stop firing). You probably are pressing reload after it has autoreloaded, so the game wont reload a full weapon. Also, depending on the weapon it might not need to reload (railgun, tranq, nailgun, etc) and again there is no reload animation for the single shotgun(you can hear but not see it reload).
