Trying to add ammo for the MK6 mortar to a vehicle

[NotMyActualName 4]

I am curretnly trying to add some ammo for the MK6 mortar to the inventory of a vehicle.

Sounds simple, right?

 

But I can't seem to "find" it in the editor.

 

I can add ammo for rifles, handgunes, whatever just fine, but I can't seem to be able to find the ammo for the MK6. (the HE shells)

 

Where can I find them?

You can't. You can script it, though.

 

In vehicle init field:

this addMagazineCargoGlobal ["8Rnd_82mm_Mo_shells", 1]

This will add one 8-round magazine of shells to the vehicle inventory. Be aware that opening the vehicle inventory (just the first time, I think) will trigger an error message for a missing .paa file, as none is associated with the magazine. Consequently, there will be no inventory picture.

Thanks, I will try that!

WHAT?

I know it is probably just how the game-engine internally handles ammo, but imagine an actual magazine-fed mortar, that would be fun ...
