NPC can't reload - so his brain explodes

[mouseturd]

Running latest experimental 4374.
Issue happens a lot when I'm at the refugee center and a zombie gets inside.
NPC wielding a ranged weapon will attempt to fire at the zombie, but can't reload.
The following message appears:DEBUG: NPC_REload Failed: No usable ammo
The NPC's brain then explodes.

This happens. A hostile NPC tried to reload a crossbow and kaput. And even static NPCs

[mouseturd]

So it was inevitable?

Can confirm as of latest-lastest experimental that actually compiles. Happens for any weapon that needs reloading, pretty much.

I think this may be a side effect of @mugling's magazine changes. I haven't looked at the code, but the NPC might be looking for ammo that exists in inventory, but requires a magazine to use.

EDIT: npcmove.cpp line 327 has a note: // todo handle reloading of empty magazines.

I think an NPC's brain exploding just signifies there was an issue that couldn't be resolved.
