ManualControl=yes sets the weapon’s countdown to a full RechargeTime and stops it, when the weapon is granted and again after every shot. The weapon therefore never charges on its own.
Only one event starts the countdown: a house’s weed pool reaching WeedCapacity starts its Type=ChemMissile weapon. Manual control covers that start. A weapon of any other behavior never charges, although a one-time grant from a trigger action or a crate still arrives fully charged.
Resuming from suspension does not restart the countdown either. A weapon suspended partway through its charge stays stopped until its next start, which begins again from a full delay. A full weed pool does not start a suspended weapon, but the pool is still emptied.
While the countdown is stopped, clicking the cameo plays SuspendVoice=, not ImpatientVoice=.
