Set the ammo count of a given weapon and detect the weapon "on hand" in Lua

That.
I'd like to know how to change the value of ammo for a given weapon and to be able to detect the weapon the player has in hand.

EDIT: I think I found the way to get which weapon is the player holding, like, ready to fire, but I still don't know how to change the ammo.

player.powers[pw_*] controls various powerups, including the ammo count of a particular weapon ring. The specific entries for each weapon ring's ammo count are pw_infinityring, pw_bouncering, pw_railring, pw_automaticring, pw_explosionring, pw_scatterring, and pw_grenadering.

To check if a player has a weapon, use (player.ringweapons & RW_*), available options RW_AUTO, RW_BOUNCE, RW_SCATTER, RW_GRENADE, RW_EXPLODE, RW_RAIL. The player's current weapon is stored under player.currentweapon, options same as before but replacing RW_ with WEP_, and using 0 for red/infinity ring.

Oh, thanks RedEnchilada!
Quick question, player.powers also contains the panels for every weapon too, right?

Nevermind, checked some more wiki to find out the panels are stored somewhere else.
