How many rounds can magazine hold?

[CarlGustaffa 4]

Hi

I'm sometimes using:

_type_name = getText(configFile>>"CfgVehicles" >> (typeOf (_vehicle)) >> "displayName"); to use the displayname of a vehicle.

How can I obtain the number of bullets each contained magazine holds? Something like:

_bullets = _bullets + getNumber(configFile>>"CfgWeapons">>.....)

Edit: Problem solved, sort of. I can use magazines instead for what I'm trying to achieve instead of bullets.

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

_weapon = "";

_magazines = [];

_possiblemagazines = [];

_magcount = 0;

_weapon = primaryWeapon player;

_magazines = magazines player;

_possiblemagazines = getArray (configFile >> "CfgWeapons" >> _weapon >> "magazines");

_i=0;

_j=0;

for "_i" from 0 to (count _magazines)-1 do{

 for "_j" from 0 to (count _possiblemagazines)-1 do{

   if((_magazines select _i) == (_possiblemagazines select _j)) then {

     _magcount = _magcount+1;

   };

 };

};

hint format ["wpn: %1\nmagcount: %2\n",_weapon,_magcount];

player sideChat format ["_possiblemagazines = %1",_possiblemagazines];

player globalChat format ["_magazines = %1",_magazines];

And here is the "full" thing. The comments in the example explains it all. Please let me know if you find any bugs.

//Small snippet to be used with "getting weapons back on respawn" type scripts. Purpose it to

_magazines = magazines player;

_currentammo = player ammo _weapon;

_possiblemagazines = getArray (configFile >> "CfgWeapons" >> _weapon >> "magazines");

_magcounter=0; //magazine counter

     };

   };

 };

 

//after dropping and getting, the _firstfound seems odd, but still works.

 _tmp = toArray (_magazines select _firstfound);

//Apparently you don't need to remove non number characters for this to work. Try 5RND blufor sniper to verify.

 _currentmagmax = parseNumber (toString [_tmp select 0]+toString [_tmp select 1]+toString [_tmp select 2]);

 _willdropammo = if(_currentammo != _currentmagmax) then {true} else {false};
