« on: 20 Nov 2005, 23:06:56 »
Is there somewhere I can get a list of all the magazine and weapon names for the addweapon and addmagazine commands?

Thanks. I have a follow up question: for some reason when I try to add any launcher to the crates it wont work. Are you not able to put launchers in crates? If not, how do I make one on the ground?

edit: also, for some reason I can't pick up launchers of any kind from dead enemies...any clue why?


edit 2: I figured out that the reason for all this was that civillians cant pick up machine guns or launchers. Is there a way to make it so they can? I don't want to have to make them resistance or west/east...
thanks

You'd need to edit the unit's configs. That means making a new addon of sorts so no.
Unless of course you want to make a new addon.

For crates you have to do this,

This AddMagazineCargo ["M16",5]; This AddWeaponCargo ["M16",1]

Etc,etc.

To make a weapon lying on the ground you need a weaponholder.   Think of it an an invisible ammo crate.

From an init.sqs:-

weaponH1 = "weaponHolder" createVehicle getMarkerPos "WH"
weaponH1 addMagazineCargo ["kozliceball", 4]
weaponH1 addMagazineCargo ["kozliceshell", 4]
weaponH1 addWeaponCargo ["kozlice", 1]
weaponH1 setPos getMarkerPos "WH"
weaponH1 setDir 70
