Drop weapon

[Alan34]

Is there an action command that will make a soldier drop his weapon (and not pick another one up)?

You could remove the weapon and clip(s) from the unit..

playername removeweapon "M16"; playername removemagazine "M16";

do that in the init line and match that soldiers loadout.. put it in a trigger or something..

if you are using 1.46 (only version Ive played so far..) you dont need to stop him from picking up a gun.. Im assume u are wanting an ai without weapons bacause u called him a soldier.. I dont nkow how to prevent a player from not picking up a gun other than not letting the gun be there to pick up..

Or you could use the Drop Weapon command

unit action ["Drop Weapon",unit,0,0,"weapon"]

I have a Russian soldier named "Sur2" with an AK74, using this syntax in a trigger:

Sur2 action ["DROPWEAPON",Sur2,0,0,"AK74"]


He does not drop the weapon:(

By the way, what do the variables represented by 0 in the previous example control?

[Messiah]

that because the command Sui gave you was:

unit action ["Drop Weapon",unit,0,0,"weapon"]

and not:

Sur2 action ["DROPWEAPON",Sur2,0,0,"AK74"]

as you wrote - the space between drop weapon is important

Thanks, works fine now.
