Weapon-preference for crewmen?

[Crackbone]

Hello,

Is it possible to set it so that crewmen of vehicles with weapons choose a weapon depending on the type of threat that is encountered?

For example, is it possible to set it so that the commander of a BMP-2 commands his gunner to choose the 30-mm HE-round to fire at infantry and the 30-mm AP round at enemy tanks?

Thanks

Are you sure? I never noticed that they did... Anyways, AI will automatically choose the best weapon suitable depending on the type of the threat  its range, however, this only works for the magazine that the AI currently have loaded. AI will NEVER reload magazines unless they are empty, so I would say the only way to get them to do this is through scripting.
