1. Rig a microswitch to the dart lock, so when a dart activates it, the microswitch will turn on.

2. Hook the microswitch to an LED. Get the LED to be visible outside the shell.

3. Do the rest of the wiring.

Now in theory, if there is a dart loaded, the LED will light up, and it will turn off when there is no dart.

So when the LED is off, you know when to reload. Not bad, Flat! It isn't REALLY useful to me, as SSML are my thing, but I think that, with pictures, you could create a good tutorial!
