Question about missiles.

[BuckStrider]

I'm confused when it comes to missiles.

When you place tracking launchers on (mk1 or mk2), in the consumables menu it gives you the option of different types of missiles (light/heavy, guided, heat seeking, smart, etc.).

If choose ANY missile, other than guided, they aren't loaded into the launcher (shows zero ammo). What am I doing wrong?

Hit Enter, then there will be an ootion to load ammo.

There are three types of launchers for 3 types of missles. Guided Launchers can only fire guided missles. This includes emp missles. So you are probably trying to shoot the wrong missles. I did the same when I started the game.
"Heavy" Missles are for torpedo launchers.
Dumbfire launchers just shoot rockets in a straight line. Afaik the rockets for them all have the same prefix. (dumbfire xy)
