make player have his weapons in the next mission (CAMPAIGN)

[foxykid09 10]

Hi Guys Im struggling with a key aspect of my campaign as I want to know how I carry through weapons to the next mission example:

Player X goes to the armoury and chooses his load out and once he's done he speaks to the commander to say he's ready or something like that and the next mission starts... And at the start of the mission he has his load out chosen from the last mission

I tried looking at the BIS Code but I didnt understand it. All I know is that addweaponpool is used?

Thanks

saveStatus and loadStatus would be the simplest commands, provided they still work. Prettier solutions require a fair amount of scripting, similar to what BIS did. It's also a difference if you just want to save a unit's loadout or also maintain a weapon pool throughout the campaign.

Ahh okay. I'll look into it and see what I can gather thanks!

Cant seem to get it to work:(

Here's a rough template, using profileNamespace.

Store the gear into an array in mission 1, then unpack it in mission 2.

//===== End of mission 1

_primaryWeapon = primaryWeapon player;
_primaryWeaponItems = primaryWeaponItems player;
_gearToSave = [_primaryWeapon,_primaryWeaponItems];
profileNamespace setVariable ["foxy_gear",_gearToSave];
saveProfileNamespace;

//===== Start of mission 2

if (!isNil {profileNamespace getVariable "foxy_gear"}) then {
_gearToLoad = profileNamespace getVariable "foxy_gear";
_primaryWeapon = _gearToLoad select 0;
_primaryWeaponItems = _gearToLoad select 1;
player addWeapon _primaryWeapon;
{player addPrimaryWeaponItem _x;} count _primaryWeaponItems;
};

Recommendation based on bad experiences: Never ever use profileNamespace for campaigns! Stored data is accessible form anywhere in the game and it also doesn't work well with reverting to / replaying older missions. The campaign namespace is perfectly fine with saveVar.

My own framework is a bit too big and too much WIP to be posted here just now but its equipment saving core is based on four functions plus utilities. First, equipment setters and getters.
