So as has been seen in the items updates lately, I've been converting submissions from DECORATE to ZScript to work with the modern standard and having PK3s instead of WAD, again, to fit with the rules here. There has been a few bits that has had some extra miles, like suitable brightmaps, and for the case of the ammo packs, different ammo maximum capacities for each different pack.
At the moment, for the megapack, is it worth having it just give max ammo along with infinite ammo for 30 seconds instead of 60, I know it gives a regular backpack as well, but would it simply giving max ammo and infinite ammo for a short time more suitable? Given that I submitted the Uberpack to give a big max capacity. Would it be worth if picking one up would give the max ammo without the backpack? Basically 25% capacity of the Uberpack. I feel it would make the Megapack then would stick out a lot more and have more uniqueness.
As for the Heretic Ammo, I have implemented an alternate amount that takes the Kex edition into account, as soon as I know how the enhanced weapons will be handled with GZDoom, I'll make the appropriate adjustments to the ZScript when possible.
Other than that, any suggestions?

I do agree with that, it makes it more unique, but at the same time it loses what makes it a "backpack", becoming more of a "uber ammo satchel" imo (which I like pretty much anyway)

In that case, I say for a best of both worlds situation, I'll make it a normal backpack also.
