weapons and ammo info

[manofwar82 11]

Hi to everyone,

is it possible to know what weapon or ammo a unit fire?
and is it possible to show it in the debug window for an easy copy and paste?

Because I remember there was something like this

I hope anyone can help me on this

For sure. These wiki pages are ur friends for it:

 

Event Handler - Fired

addEventHandler

 

idk what u mean with debug windo but you could just copy to clipboard with this:

You can get them without using an event handler if that suits you better. "currentweapon player" will get you the classname of the weapon, if you need display name you can use

((configFile >> "CfgWeapons" >> currentWeapon player >> "displayName") call BIS_fnc_GetCfgData)

magazinesAmmo might be useful for getting magtypes and ammo of all mags on player, currentMagazine just gets you the magazine class, and

player ammo currentWeapon player;

will give you the ammo count for the player's current weapon.

 

To get the display name of the current magazine use:

((configFile >> "CfgMagazines" >> currentMagazine player >> "displayName") call BIS_fnc_GetCfgData)

 

If you copy any of these into the debug "watch" bit, it'll give you the result

 

Hope that helps you out (:

What about to know the weapon a vehicle use?

this should do:

((configFile >> "CfgWeapons" >> (vehicle player) currentWeaponTurret [0] >> "displayName") call BIS_fnc_GetCfgData)

In a hunter this gives "RCWS HMG 12.7 mm". I'm not all too sure about turret paths (the "[0]", bit).

It might also work with "weapons (vehicle player) select X" or "(vehicle player) weaponsTurret [0] select X" instead of the currentWeaponTurret bit, where x is whichever one you'd need, depending on what your goal is.

And no worries, glad I can help (:
