How to make unit fire at inanimated objects

[frag]

I want to make a unit to fire on a barrel or a sign...but never want to do it.

I tried unitname dofire barrelname or unitname dotarget barrelname

...I was never able to make it shoot at the objects.

Is there a way to do it?!

Briefly, I want to make a pratice field...where soldier are busy firing at target. And I am not as cruel as placing live target in the field  :-X

Thanks in advance!

Well, it is impossible to make a unit fire on an object. I asked something like that some months ago and well, it is impossible. Anyway, I think I saw somewhere an addon which makes a unit shoot a, ermm... I don't know the word in English now... bull's eye I think. Well shoots a bull's eye. I can't remember the name of the addon though. Let's hope someone remembers it.

its help on improving right hand technique

Maybe try to place a gamelogic on the item you wish to fire at and make it fire at the gamelogic instead of the object. It may simulate but my pc dont have ofp on it atm so I cant test this theroy  :-\

how  bout using a command to make them look at the object, then a second or 2 later, use the fire command to make them fire their weapons (check the opflash command reference)give the illusion they are firing at it?

But I can't test it now since I am at work
