The various ammunitions for weapons make up the majority of the consumables category. You create ammunitions in the Assembler. All ammo recipes, except the Railgun Sabots, need Magnesium Powder and therefore, ammo can explode when shot at. Railgun Sabots, Rockets, and Artillery Shells are end-game ammunitions that also require Uranium Ingots in their recipes.
It is not possible to produce Ammo in the Survival Kit, so check the default Drop Pod's seat for an emergency stash. It's good to know that a few types of early-game ammo (such as S-10, S-20A, MR-20, MR-50A magazines) and the respective handheld weapons can already be created in a Basic Assembler.
If NPC "Cargo Ships" are enabled in the World Settings, ammo can also be found as random loot in the cargo containers of various Military ships.
