Salvaging weapons from enemies..

Recommended Posts

Ok I was just playing a pretty long mission & one of my team ran out of ammo,there were some dead enemies next to us so i picked my man,pressed 6, told him to "take PKM" , and he proceeded to run off to where the still very much alive enemies were firing from aboutr half a mile away to take a weapon from the dead near them,and inevitably got himself killed in the process! So is this a bug or bad script?or am i missing something? Ive also had a similar thing when Ive told a medic to heal a squad member, but he's run off halfway across the map to heal an allied soldier somewhere else!

Yes, I've come across this problem plenty of times :mad:

Its also a problem to order a unit into a vehicle if there are several of the same type around. :(

I haven't tried it in Arma2 but in Arma you could select your man navigate through the menus, pick Gear, then point at the body you wanted them to scavenge from.

They would move to the body, then the gear screen would come up and you could sort out their load.

Ive not tried that, although it would be pretty difficult to do when the bodies are hidden in long grass & your under fire as well!
