How to increase rate of fire?

[ZU23 2]

Hello, can someone give me the exact config.cpp code on how to double the rate of fire for the 35mm AA cannon?

 

I tried this code by changing the reloadTime from 1 to 0.5 but nothing happened.

class CfgWeapons {
class autocannon_35mm;

class IncreasedROFCannon : autocannon_35mm {
reloadTime = 0.5;
};
};

Look at the other classes in CfgWeapons, you need to change those to.

Spoiler

class wht_IROF_120mm : wht_cannon_120mm {
    magazinereloadTime=4.0;
    
    class close : close {
        reloadTime=2.0;        
    };
    class far : far {
        reloadTime=2.0;        
    };
    class short : short {
        reloadTime=2.0;        
    };
    class medium : medium {
        reloadTime=2.0;        
    };
    class player : player {
        reloadTime=2.0;        
    };
    };
    

class close,short,medium,far is for AI, class player for player

Sorry this didnt help, there is no player class in autocannon_35mm so I tried this

class CfgWeapons {
class autocannon_35mm;
class autocannon_IROF_35mm : autocannon_35mm { 
    class close {
        reloadTime = 0.0275;        
    };
    class far {
        reloadTime = 0.0275;        
    };
    class short {
        reloadTime = 0.0275;        
    };
    class medium {
        reloadTime = 0.0275;        
    };
    class manual {
        reloadTime = 0.0275;        
    };
    };
};

and again nothing happened

If you write it like this, does it work for you then??

class autocannon_35mm;
class test_autocannon_35mm: autocannon_35mm
 {
    class close;
    class far;
    class short;
    class medium;
    class player;
    };

class  autocannon_IROF_35mm : test_autocannon_35mm {

    class close : close {
        reloadTime=4.0;        
    };
    class far : far {
        reloadTime=4.0;        
    };
    class short : short {
        reloadTime=4.0;        
    };
    class medium : medium {
        reloadTime=4.0;        
    };
    class player : player {
        reloadTime=4.0;        
    };

Weird, that works fine for me.
you haven't forgotten to call for it in    

Cfgvehicles:

 

class Turrets: Turrets {

     class MainTurret: MainTurret {

               weapons[]={autocannon_IROF_35mm};

     };

};

This is a bit confusing, can you just post the entire config.cpp? thanks

Apparently the class for player ROF for the 35mm cannon was "class manual" and not class player:
So just change that.
The config above will make a new nato AA and its firerate to 0.030, but remember that ROF is FPS-dependent in arma so if you go below a certain FPS the gun will fire slower
