I know on the turrets it makes them drop all ammo they haven’t expended but when I tried to apply it to the tankbot it doesn’t seem to work. Either that or I have to hunt down which specific mod is responsible for this.

NEVERMIND! As a note to people who want to kill robots for their ammo, do not use anti-tank weapons or presumably and explosive weapons. Which now that I think about it makes a lot of sense.

Yeah, you must use emp/scrambler grenade to obtain ammo… or hack it.
