The game features an ammunition system, providing only five shots before having to reload. Players can reload by driving their tank into a yellow, glowing pad on which they must wait for the ammo to recharge. This wait increases the difficulty, as it provides the enemies a chance to destroy the tank. Although tanks and turrets can fire upon the player's tank, the Recognizer doesn't have this ability - even though it was shown in TRON. An upgrade was provided to the Recognizer in TRON: Legacy, however this upgrade is not apparent in the versions in Space Paranoids Online.
