cheers

to add a weapon to a ammo box, put this into it's init field:

Code: [Select]

this addweaponcargo ["M16",5]; this addmagazinecargo ["M16",5]
this will add 5 M16's and 5 M16 mags.

To add a weapon to a soldier, use this:

Code: [Select]

removeallweapons this; this addmagazine "M16"; this addmagazine "M16"; this addmagazine "M16"; this addmagazine "M16"; this addweapon "M16
this will remove all of the soldiers previous weapon, and then add 4 M16 mags and a M16 gun.

The comref is the official command reference. This is a list of all the scripting commands that can be used in the game. I siggest looking in the editors depot for tutorial on scripting and mission editing.

Hey minimilo!

    Check out this page and you will see an ammocrate filler script. You can also do this manually. Look on this page and scroll down to "addweapon" and "addmagazine". Be sure to read the comments under these commands as they contain some useful info.

What exactly have did you put in

EDIT

if you put in what I said, then it's wrong. I made a mistake while typing  it. Here's how it should look:

Code: [Select]

removeallweapons this; this addmagazine "M16"; this addmagazine "M16"; this addmagazine "M16"; this addmagazine "M16"; this addweapon "M16"
