Issue Title: Energy Gun Issue

Issue Description: When I was playing a round before I used the energy gun to kill a person. I wasn't sure if it recharged or not after it switched to Empty. I tried reloading it but nothing happened when I did it twice. When I was in another level afterwards I noticed it had 1/3 ammo instead of 1/1 (which fixed itself when I opened the level again)and it was reloaded. I'm not sure how the gun is supposed to function and if there is supposed to be a reload option or not.

Note: Was not able to upload the save (said I'm not permitted to even though I have before. Might be because I messed around with the level difficulty numbers...I don't know.

Steps to Reproduce: 1. Buy energy gun.

2. Kill guard.

3. Attempt reloading twice.

4. Finish level.

5. Start another level.

This is what I did, no guarantee that it works.

Okay, thanks, I'll take a look at the functionality of the gun and see what I can figure out.

It seems like the functionality of the gun is this:

 

1. It can only be fired during one turn per mission.

2. During the turn you fire it, it can be fired at least twice - possibly more.

3. It can't be reloaded, but will be charged again next mission.

 

If this is the intended behavior, the issue is with the UI - the way ammo is currently displayed doesn't really have any way to convey the details of gun's state, and its description makes it sound like an ordinary AP1 gun.

I was doing some more testing with this gun. It seem like you have it infinitely for one turn until the next mission.
