Indication of Weapon Firing.

[mattsmith94 10]

I want to write a script which is triggered by a weapon firing. In this case the weapon is vehicle mounted (Tank Main Gun) but could also be extended to Rocket Launchers or Placed Explosive Devices. Could any one please advise how to detect when a weapon has been fired.

 

Thanks

The thing is that a tank has more than one weapon.

 

Why would this code apply to the tank main gun rather than another weapon?

In the code of the event handler, you can check which weapon was fired and take the appropriate action.....
