# ➕Magazines

> In this page you will learn how magazines are animated in the pack

## Animator Controllers

**Tactical Shooter Pack** uses magazines as standalone skeletal meshes, which have spring, mag follower and cartridges properly animated.

Magazines are added directly to the weapon mesh, they are then assigned an Animator Controller:

These controllers only contain a mag animation, which is played based on how much ammo is left:

The `MagProgress` float property is updated by the Mag Animator component, which accesses the current weapon ammo capacity.

This component tries to get the current weapon's ammo capacity to compute the `MagProgress` value.

To display the animation correctly, it's important to adjust these properties:

* **Mag Capacity**: max ammo for this magazine.

* **Time Step**: how much time in seconds it takes to play a single bullet.

* **Interp Speed**: smoothing speed for mag progress.

* **Mag Progress**: if set to 0, the first frame will be used, if 1 - the last one; this property is dynamically updated at runtime.
