Adding Binoculars to an ammo box

[Boehling 1]

Hello guys.

I am currently working on an ammo box which contains weapons that i choose.

So I spawned an ammo box in the editor and added this to its initalization line: [this] Exec "crate.sqs"

Now i added that crate.sqs to the arma 3 mission folder and it works fine with adding weapons like: _crate addWeaponCargo ["hgun_P07_F", 3];

But if I try to at a binocular or something, it doesnt appear like it worked in arma 2.

_crate addWeaponCargo ["Binocular", 3];

doesnt work. Same with caps or weapon silencer.

Can someone help?

Actually is an item, so type this in your script:

_crate additemCargoGlobal ["Binocular", 3];

i find the opposite is true - binocs are a weapon, NVG is an item - how weird is that?

this works fine in my client side script

_crate addWeaponCargo ["Binocular",1];

_crate addItemCargo ["NVGoggles",1];

Right, i've heard actually seems it work in both ways. :) (i'm referring to the Binoculars, not at the NVGs)

doesnt work. Same with caps or weapon silencer.

Ops i've read it only right now: these are items, use additemcargo (client side) or additemcarglobal (same for all client)
