Grenades and rockets should refill automatically in the background. You get one grenade/rocket every 10 seconds. We could also then add a perk that cuts this time in half(?)
Benefits:
no more grenade spam (which is miserable enough with frag grenades; vomit-inducing with smokes and flashbangs)
this turns throwables from main-able items into utility/powerful openers - presumably closer to their original intended use case
no more standing around inside the ammo circle for half an hour waiting for a grenade to finally spawn
This change would come with the reduction of spare ammo for grenades (and perhaps even the Rocket). All grenades would have 1 spare ammo (which is to say, you can only have 1 grenade on you at all times). However, the Armed perk would still double this amount, allowing people to have 2 grenades they can spam if they really want. Note that the reload timer only begins counting down if you have empty slots for a grenade to appear in.
