Editing a soldier's gear slots

[astano 0]

I've never done any sort of configing or much scripting at all, so please bear with me.

I want to change what a soldier is able to carry, the specific slots he has available. In particular, I want to make my RHS Mot. Inf. Artillery Soldiers and Drivers able to carry a full set of gear instead of their current setup of one primary and four magazine slots. I want them to be able to carry the full set of gear like any other soldier.

I figure the unit's config is where I'll most likely be able to do this. So, is it possible? If so, could someone sort of walk me through what I need to do and how? Thanks.

In the .cpp search for 'class Soldier:Man', you should find the code below-

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE"> class Soldier:Man

{

vehicleClass="";

displayName="$STR_DN_SOLDIER";

nameSound="soldier";

weaponSlots="1 + 16 + 10* 256 + 2* 4096 + 2 + 4* 32";

accuracy=0.6;

type=0;

threat[]={1,0.05,0.05};

};

This is the code to enable all weapon solts-

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">weaponSlots = "1 + 16 + 10* 256 + 2* 4096 + 2 + 4* 32";

weaponSlots for 'SoldierWMedic'-

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">weaponSlots = "1 + 4 * 256 + 4096 + 2 + 4* 32";

You can -

1. Work out what small changes will do through trial 'n' error!

2. Copy & Paste the default soldiers weaponSlots into the RHS config.

Let me know if i've jumped in too deep!

Thanks a million!

I'll try it out sometime tomorrow (it's almost 1 a.m. here and I need to get some sleep) and let you know how it works out.
