I need more magazines please!!!

[spektre76 10]

Yes I have searched....

I am using the 'Pilot' model. I have changed the weapon to the MP5SD6 successfully. I have added ammunition successfully however -

My script:

removeallweapons this; this addweapon "MP5SD"; this addmagazine "30Rnd_9x19_MP5SD";

How do I add more than one magazine? I have tried addding a '5' in front of the class name for the magazine sparated by a comma. And even after the class name. I have also tried making more than one sting of the same class name example:

"30Rnd_9x19_MP5SD,30Rnd_9x19_MP5SD, 30Rnd_9x19_MP5SD";

Thanks,

SPEKTRE

Thanks but I already tried that. I just added the G36C_SD_eotech to my scout. I used the correct magazine class name. And I keep getting "Missing ;". But I am not missing the colon???

:icon_ohmygod:

You have some options... you copy your fully not working code here or you copy my posted code excactly and put it exactly in your mission or you read the editing guide and learn how to script in Armed Assault... otherwise noone can help you...

:rolleyes:

If you want the weapon to be reloaded at the startadd the magazines first.

removeallweapons this; for "_i" from 1 to 5 do {this addmagazine "30Rnd_9x19_MP5SD";}; this addweapon "MP5SD";

[AnimalMother92 10]

{this addMagazine "className"} forEach [1,2,3,4,5,6,7];

Best way to add multiple magazines. This is off the top of my head and I'm nowhere near Arma, so sorry if it's wrong :p

To have the weapon loaded from the start, add the mags before adding the weapon.

LOL

I figured it out. I kinda took the long way home on this one. Here's what I got below (works perfectly):

removeallweapons this; this addweapon "MP5SD"; this addmagazine "30rnd_9x19_MP5SD"; this addmagazine "30rnd_9x19_MP5SD"; this addmagazine "30rnd_9x19_MP5SD"; this addmagazine "30rnd_9x19_MP5SD"; this addmagazine "30rnd_9x19_MP5SD"; this addweapon "M9SD"; this addmagazine "15rnd_9x19_M9SD"; this addmagazine "15rnd_9x19_M9SD"; this addmagazine "15rnd_9x19_M9SD"; this addweapon "M136"; this addmagazine "M136"; this addmagazine "M136"; this addweapon "NVgoggles"; this addweapon "ItemGPS"; this addweapon "ItemRadio"; this addweapon "ItemWatch"; this addweapon "itemMap"; this addweapon "Binocular";

*You can use any character you wish ;o). Just hightlight the green text and Ctrl>C then Ctrl>V into the editor.

[AnimalMother92 10]

removeallWeapons this; {this addMagazine "30rnd_9x19_MP5SD"} forEach [1,2,3,4,5]; this addWeapon "MP5SD"; {this addMagazine "15rnd_9x19_M9SD"} forEach [1,2,3]; this addWeapon "M9SD"; this addMagazine "M136"; this addWeapon "M136"; this addWeapon "NVGoggles"; this addWeapon "Binocular";

Should do the same more or less, no need to copypasta so much ;)

[spektre76 10]

Hey man that is waaaay better! Thank you so much! I need to get back into coding again. It's been 4 years since I even spoke the language. LOL, the last thing I touched was VB.Net 2005, LOL.

I wish I can encompass that all into a function. You know like DIM it with a really simple name like 'LO1' (Load Out 1). That way all you type are three characters.

LO1 = {
 _unit = _this;
 removeallWeapons _unit;
 {
   _unit addMagazine "30rnd_9x19_MP5SD"
 } forEach [1,2,3,4,5];
 _unit addWeapon "MP5SD";
 {
   _unit addMagazine "15rnd_9x19_M9SD"
 } forEach [1,2,3]; 
 _unit addWeapon "M9SD";
 _unit addMagazine "M136";
 _unit addWeapon "M136";
 _unit addWeapon "NVGoggles";
 _unit addWeapon "Binocular";
};

Then you just do:

SomeUnit call LO1;

In init use 'this'

[spektre76 10]

Wow!!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!! I will try this rightnow. It'll be much easier to set up my team in the editor now.

[Muzzleflash 111]

You have to be careful with initilization process. Eg. you attempt to call the function before it is defined.

One way to get around this is to make a trigger, give it a timeout of 3s (min, mid max). Condition is true. Set it to BLUFOR PRESENT. In your on act

{_x call LO1;} forEach thisList;

Then you can be sure the function is defined when you call it.

For easy and almost automatic weapon adding, try my addWeapon script. Only the classname of the weapon is needed.

[Rockhount 21]

Before you add some magazines, you should remove all the old magazines with *{_unit removeMagazine _x} forEach magazines _unit;* otherwise the unit will have all the old and new magzines.

[Deadfast 43]

No, it won't.

removeAllWeapons removes both weapons and magazines.
