RCA3 586 Posted November 11, 2019 Assistant Machinegunner and Assistant Anti-Tank Description: Allows the machinegunner (or anti-tank gunner) to request his group members for ammunition. Addon version automatically detects units equipped with machine guns or AT launchers and initiates. Features: When gunners have less than two magazines, FSM activates. Assistants will move to gunner with a low stance and "drop" magazine. Gunner will "pick it up". Tested with VCOMAI, TCL and LAMBS 2.0. Download: Google Drive Usage: FSM (do not run on the assistants but on the gunners themselves): Copy FSM file(s) to your mission root folder. On automatic rifleman/machinegunner's init: null=this execFSM "assistant_mg.fsm"; On anti-tank gunner's init: null=this execFSM "assistant_at.fsm"; Addon: Unzip to your mods folder Addon required locally where AI is present Requires CBA Notes: Unit must be armed when initializing the FSM.

SomethingSimple 0 Posted April 16, 2020 Any plans of turning this into an addon instead of a misson script by chance? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LSValmont 789 Posted April 16, 2020 This should be in LAMBS by default! So much immersion! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nkenny 1057 Posted April 16, 2020 Cool stuff! We're looking to add a post-battle assessment state in the FSM, which would be a perfect place to add something like this 🙂 But by itself it is pretty neat too. -k 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
