21- gun salute

can someone script a 21 gun salute

all you have to do is give each unit the unit fire"m16" command in a script. For some random reason, they automatically aim into the air.

CAN YOU SCRIPT IT IM NEW TO EDITING

[XCess]

in the trigger you want to start the salute type []exec"salute.sqs"
then make a text file in the mission folder and name it salute.sqs (make sure you allow view of file extensions in your folder options). Inside the script type the following:

unit1 fire"m16"
unit2 fire"m16"
unit3 fire"m16"

add a line for each unit you want to fire, and remember to name them in the editor
Also, if you want it to happen slow then type setacctime 0.3 at the beginning of the script and then setacctime 1 at the end of the script.

GunnerySargeantBeckett, here at OFPEC capital letters in ordinary text are used to indicate shouting.    It is very occasionally acceptable to shout, but as a general rule we discourage it.
