Switching ammo types is painfully slow #360

We should probably allow players to cancel a reload by switching ammo types, this immediately results in reloading again, but that way they can quickly switch between ammo types without having to wait for the reload to finish every time they switch.

One thing to note on this, allowing ammo switch to cancel reload would probably clear heat every time you switched, need some way to only clear the heat once if at all from switching ammo types.

I was thinking this would be best done with a radial menu (similar to how pings work in League of Legends). Eg: press +ammocycle (N) to show ammo types available for current weapon, then drag mouse in direction of ammo you want to load, release and it starts to load that ammo type. Tap N during mid ammo switch to cancel and stay on the current ammo.
