Ammunition

'''Ammunition''' (or '''ammo''') is the name of consumable items needed to operate nearly every ranged weapon in the game. In MazeWorld, the amount of damage dealt by a ranged weapon is determined by the ammunition, not the weapon itself, unlike a typical melee weapon. An easy-to-remember principle is this: "''The object that hits the target is the object that has damage values"''. For a firearm, it would be the bullet (a function of the ammunition). For a knife, it would be its blade (a function of the weapon itself).
As such, it is important to know which type of ammunition your weapons need, as it determines the amount of damage dealt. There are different sub-types of ammunition as well, which further modify the amount of damage dealt or the way it damages specific targets. They will be explained in detail in the pages below.
== Firearm calibers ==
Firearm calibers are subdivided into three four informal categories: <span style="color:#0000AA">'''(P)'''</span>istol calibers, <span style="color:#AA0000">'''(R)'''</span>ifle calibers and , <span style="color:#00AA00">'''(S)'''</span>hotgun calibers, and '''(X)''' (Special) calibers. The vast majority fall into any of the first three categories; the '''(X)''' category is reserved for very specific outliers.
Calibers listed below may also be sorted by base [[Pain]] damage (to give a rough idea of power), metric/imperial notation, [[Recoil]] value, and amount of compatible base [[weapons]] (including [[weapon accessory|accessories]]). The amount of base Pain provided for shotgun calibers is that of '''F-Slug''' projectiles. (see [[Ammunition#Shotgun caliber projectiles|this section]] for more details)

= Projectile types =
== Pistol and rifle caliber projectiles ==
 
All pistol and rifle projectile types belong to one of four groups:
* '''Solids''', for solid, non-expanding projectiles not designed to expand nor defeat armor
* '''Expanding''', for projectiles designed to expand or deform on impact, such as hollow-points or soft-points
* '''Armor-piercing''', for projectiles designed to retain their shape and defeat armor or hard targets
* '''Exotics''', for projectiles that do not fall in any of the above groups
