Anyone? how do I choose which weapon a unit spawns with?

"this removeallweapons" gets rid of current loadout

"this addmagazine" adds ammo

"this addweapon" adds weapon

"this selectweapon" selects the appropriate gun when u first spawn

puts these in the unit's init field and get classnames here:

It's removeAllWeapons object

I think it would be easier with a proper example, i went a bit crazy reading this thread and not understanding it, so I did some research myself.

This is the script from me modding a DEMOLITIONS EXPERT (Force Recon) for my latest mission, with some stealthy cool kit. It appears if done properly you can put as much stuff as you like onto your men (within reason)! It doesn't show up properly in the gear menu though.

His name in the game is 'test', and he has a G36 silenced/reflex sight, a javelin rocket, and an m9 (silenced) with 3 satchel charges (called pipebomb). Remember to add NV Goggles and Binoculars to anyone you remove all weapons from, and that you need to put removeallweapons <name>; first!!!

the equipment is in italic, the command in bold - the name of the unit is in Red!

removeallweapons test; test addmagazine "javelin"; test addweapon "javelin"; test addweapon "binocular"; test addweapon "NVGoggles"; test addweapon "G36_C_SD_eotech"; test addmagazine "30Rnd_556x45_G36SD"; test addmagazine "30Rnd_556x45_G36SD"; test addmagazine "30Rnd_556x45_G36SD"; test addmagazine "30Rnd_556x45_G36SD"; test addmagazine "30Rnd_556x45_G36SD"; test addmagazine "30Rnd_556x45_G36SD"; test addweapon "M9SD"; test addmagazine "15Rnd_9x19_M9SD"; test addmagazine "15Rnd_9x19_M9SD"; test addmagazine "pipebomb"; test addmagazine "pipebomb"; test addmagazine "15Rnd_9x19_M9SD"; test addmagazine "15Rnd_9x19_M9SD"; test addmagazine "pipebomb";

If you want to try it out, just paste that into your initialization section of your unit's editing page, and call him < test > (just the 4 letters!)

Use that to change weapons to your needs, as kindly provided by Animal Mother above.

I hope seeing it in this context helps! :bounce3:

Use:

{test addmagazine "30Rnd_556x45_G36SD";} forEach [1,2,3,4,5,6];

Instead of copy-pasting the same command 6 times.

You could also use a while loop that runs 6 times.
