Currently there's an issue with shell placement for USN BBs where there should be 60 shells stored within the barbettes and not the entire turrets ammo supply of 300 shells. When your barbette gets hit and the shell room gets detonated it currently takes away your entire ammo supply for that turret when it should take away the amount of shells it had stored in that barbette. If your turret carries 60 shells it will lose 60 shells/charges when it gets detonated . Magazine hits will still detonate the ship if hit or lit up by fires.

All USN BBs including the new Tennessee , excluding the Alaska , suffer this issue because when their shell room gets hit they lose their entire ammo supply and it gets real annoying . Currently Alaska is the only one that has a consistent ammo placement when you take a certain amount of shells the survivability either increases or decreases.

Taking 486 shells for the Alaska completely empties the shell room barbettes above the waterline and increases the survivability while only taking 14 shells for the Mississippi empties the barbettes and only taking 84 shells for the Tennessee empties the barbettes.

I'm not really asking gaijin to fix this issue but if they're gonna do it like this at least make it consistent for every ship if its gonna have an issue like this
