Tracer ammo burns tracers along the line of flight, making it easier to home in on the target. This type of ammunition can only be used in full-auto weapons and are actually loaded as every third round in a clip. This is an exception to the restriction of one type of ammunition to a clip. Non-smartgun users receive an additional –1 target number modifier at all ranges beyond Short, cumulative with every third round fired (–1 after first three, –2 after six, –3 after nine, and so on). When calculating burst damage for three round, multiple round, or short bursts, do not add a bonus to the Power for the tracer round, but do increase the Damage Level accordingly. For example, a submachine gun at 5M firing 10 rounds would have a damage code of 12D, instead of the normal 15D.
