fire weapon on waypoint, problem finding classname

[Springfield86 2]

hello internet, i wonder how i find classnames of mod vehicles -
in this particular case im trying to make an AI plane drop a Bomb at a waypoint

this forceWeaponFire ["Bomb_03_Plane_CAS_02_F", "LoalAltitude"]; 

i used this in vanilla planes and a c.u.p. planes and it worked fine, as long as i used "FAB-250M-54" on the planes pylons.

now how do i find the specific classname for the RHS Su25 FAB 500 bombs, cause it looks like it wont work. are they firing different missiles as in vanilla i suppose?

//i tried the vanilla one
this forceWeaponFire ["bomb_03_plane_cas_02_f", "LoalAltitude"]; 

//i tried these i found on the interwebs
this forceWeaponFire ["rhs_weap_fab250_m62", "LoalAltitude"]; 
this forceWeaponFire ["rhs_weap_ofab250", "LoalAltitude"]; 
this forceWeaponFire ["rhs_weap_fab250", "LoalAltitude"]; 
this forceWeaponFire ["rhs_ammo_fab250_m62", "LoalAltitude"]; 
this forceWeaponFire ["rhs_ammo_ofab250", "LoalAltitude"]; 
this forceWeaponFire ["rhs_ammo_fab250", "LoalAltitude"]; 

Spoiler

but didnt seem to work, in general

how do i find out what classnames i need or how do i know if a mod fires different ammo then in vanilla used?

I believe you can use the Config Viewer (guessing cfgWeapons) to dig around.

yeah i did that @Von Quest but im not really finding anything or really knowing what to look for =/
if im looking for "fab" or "250" i cant find it

To find the class name of weapons and magazines

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =

 

Place this in the init field of any aircraft, vehicle or soldier:

 

hint format["%1 %2", weapons this, magazines this];

 

 

 

To find the class name of ammunition

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =

 

Fire the weapon, aircraft bomb or whatever the weapon is:

 

this addeventhandler ["fired",{hint format ["Weapon name : %1 Ammo name : %2",_this select 1,_this select 4]}]

 

.

thanks @Joe98 that actually helped a lot!  buuuuuuuuut..... i looked in the weaponscfg for the "output your script gave me" and found that the mode for the weapon looks like this modes[] = {"this"}; while for the "bomb_03_plane_cas_02_f" it was "LoalAltitude"

so this should do the trick right? wrong... still does not work, did i got something wrong?

this forceWeaponFire ["rhs_weap_fab250", "this"];  

//or

this forceWeaponFire ["rhs_weap_fab100", "single"];  

 

update:
changed weapon and did the same again, looked in the cnfg and mode was loaltitude this time, that worked.
 

this forceWeaponFire ["rhs_weap_kab500", "LoalAltitude"]; 

so it was a problem of altitude or did i misunderstand "modes[] = {"this"};"?

Just follow BIKI:

If modes[] param in config for the weapon says {"this"}, then the same classname as for the weapon param (currentWeapon player) should be used as firemode param.

(example: _unit forceWeaponFire ["HandGrenadeMuzzle","HandGrenadeMuzzle"];)

 

Modes are neither ammos nor muzzles! But sometimes you need to repeat the weapon class as mode class.
Anyway, I always play as pilot or gunner and copy to clipboard the actual parameter (in console) :

player addEventHandler ["firedMan", {params ["", "_weapon", "", "_mode"]; hint str [_weapon,_mode]; copyToClipboard str [_weapon,_mode]}];  // ["rhs_weap_fab500","rhs_weap_fab500"] or ["rhs_weap_kab500","LoalAltitude"]

BEAUTIFUL! i swear i feel like an idiot, i had the "biki" site open all the time and didnt see "this" - thank you pierre, merci!
