Problem with addweapon and optics

[riouken 15]

I am making a custom load-out script for OA and when I add the weapon with "addWeapon" you can not look through the optics, but if I select the same weapon out of the ammo box I have no problems.

player addWeapon "M16A4_ACG_GL";

Its not just this one weapon either its:

M16A4_ACG

M16A4_ACG_GL

M249_m145_EP1

As well.

does anyone know why this is happening?

First off, the M16's are an ArmA2 weapon, not Operation Arrowhead.

If you're unable to use a weapon after addWeapon'ing it, try adding:

unit selectWeapon primaryWeapon unit;

Sorry I am running Combined Opps.

I tried that code but it did not fix the problem.

When my script adds the weapon I can not view through the optics, but when I select the same weapon with the same class name from the ammo box I can use the optics just fine.

So after more testing it appears to be all weapons, I can not zoom down to the sights on any weapon. But after I cycle through weapons, everything goes back to normal.

It only happens to me if I have no ammo loaded.
