SA_Warthog

As everyone else is, looking for a squad/clan to join. Don't have arma 3 yet, but if insisted I could go get it. I love creating missions, so if you need someone to help make missions for the squad/clan I'd be more than happy to do so. My preferred role would be sniping/recon. I care less about getting kills and more about aiding the team's goals. I'd rather inform the team that there is a force coming their way, rather than just trying to kill all of them (given, I would probably try to take out the highest ranking members of the force to aid my team). I can also pilot quite well, heli's are my best. I'd need to be informed on how to correctly use comms, but other than that I should be good to go. I'm easy to get along with, so won't have to worry there! :)

I've read every thread that I could find on forcing AI to use their gun-mounted flashlights. I've got it to work for a bit, then it won't work again. It seems to have worked in combat mode, moving from waypoint to waypoint. Other modes seem to not work. This is the init line for my blufor rifleman RemoveAllWeapons this; this AddWeapon "JWC_FL_M4A1_HWS_GL"; this AddMagazine "30Rnd_556x45_Stanag"; unitName enableGunLights true; The weapon is from a weapon addon called JWC_Weapon_Flashlight_v1.1 If I take the AI's gun, or place the gun on myself, the gun works fine, as well as the flashlight. I'm not entirely sure what else to do. Any tips or tricks to figuring this out? Night missions are my favorite, but they're becoming a drag if I can't make them use flashlights :( Update: After doing more research, it appears that setting way points and making the units in combat is the way to go. They are using the flash lights while in combat mode, and on that path. The flashlights remain on while fighting as well. Would still like to find out a way to get the lights working in non-combat waypoints. I tried putting combat waypoints very close to each other, then just putting a cycle waypoint. It seems to be working quite well for having the units stay in one position. They are moving around, i.e. Standing up, crouching, proning, and moving a few meters at max. For vehicles to have their lights on I've been successful using the "Safe" waypoints. You can just make one waypoint, and have it end at the place you would like the vehicle to sit, or make several waypoints as safe for its route. For infantry, I have to manually go into the init and do something along these lines RemoveAllWeapons this; this AddWeapon "JWC_FL_AK_107_kobra"; this AddMagazine ["30Rnd_545x39_AK",10]; unitName enableGunLights true; to remove NVG's, and equip a weapon with a flashlight, give them ammunition, and then force them to use their gun lights. It makes it difficult to have a diverse squad (ie weaponry/roles) if I have to manually choose their weapons & equipment. Any tips or ideas are welcome!
