Attempting to replace weapons per unit class

[Militant1006 11]

Recently I have been trying to write a script which replaces all loadouts for a unit class on the map with another, basically swapping the Takistani Army FN FAL's for AKM's, however it is quite tricky.

I have a file called weaponreplace.sqf which has this in it's contents

_typeof_soldier = typeof _soldier;

_riflemen = [

"TK_Soldier_EP1",

"TK_Soldier_B_EP1",

"TK_Soldier_LAT_EP1",

"TK_Soldier_Engineer_EP1",

"TK_Soldier_AMG_EP1",

"TK_Soldier_AAT_EP1",

"TK_Soldier_Night_2_EP1",

"TK_Soldier_TWS_EP1",

"TK_Soldier_Night_1_EP1"

];

if (_typeof_soldier in _riflemen) then {

removeAllWeapons _soldier;

_soldier addMagazine ["30Rnd_762x39_AK47", 6];

_soldier addMagazine ["handGrenade_east", 2];

_soldier addMagazine ["ACE_RDG2", 2];

_soldier addWeapon "ACE_AKM";

_soldier selectWeapon (primaryWeapon _soldier);

};

and I have this being executed from the init.sqf

{_x setVehicleInit "_soldier = this"} forEach allUnits;

processInitCommands;

wpnreplace = [] execVM "Scripts\weaponreplace.sqf";

I have tried replacing all the _soldier with _this and executing off a single soldier's init with

wpnreplace = this execVM "Scripts\weaponreplace.sqf";

and it works fine, replaces the weapon and everything, however I can't figure out a way to send this to each unit across the map, as I plan on checking every soldier type on the Takistani Army side, with almost all having their weapons replaced.

Any ideas?

May I suggest LEA instead, make your life a lot easier and save from scripting all of that.

No it won't, I know what LEA does, I need a script which I only have to manually set up once, then from there on it is easy, just execute it and it does what it needs to, on any mission.

All I need is a way to execute this for every soldier on the map.

_riflemen = [
"TK_Soldier_EP1",
"TK_Soldier_B_EP1",
"TK_Soldier_LAT_EP1",
"TK_Soldier_Engineer_EP1",
"TK_Soldier_AMG_EP1",
"TK_Soldier_AAT_EP1",
"TK_Soldier_Night_2_EP1",
"TK_Soldier_TWS_EP1",
"TK_Soldier_Night_1_EP1"
];

{
	if ((typeOf _x) in _riflemen) then {
		removeAllWeapons _x;
		_x addMagazine ["30Rnd_762x39_AK47", 6];
		_x addMagazine ["handGrenade_east", 2];
		_x addMagazine ["ACE_RDG2", 2];
		_x addWeapon "ACE_AKM";
		_x selectWeapon (primaryWeapon _x);
	};
}forEach allUnits;

forEach and allUnits

Only needs to run once.
