SHK_gear

Since the switching gear stuff gets asked almost daily. Here is something related to it, a script to switch gear for multiple units. You can have any number of different gear sets (just add a new case inside the switch). Point of this is to cut down the work when using same loadout in different missions. One down side/known issue is that the changed gear does not show up in briefing. Instead, it is changed after it, when the mission actually begins. I don't think I'm the only one eager to hear a solution to this.

SHK_gear.sqf

Called from init.sqf

[
 ["AgentWest",[a1,a2,a3,a4]],
 ["Police",[p1,p2,p3,p4,p5,p6,p7,p8]],
 ["Fugitive",[f1,f2,f3,f4,c1,c2,c3]]
] execvm "SHK_gear.sqf";

In this example the unit arrays consist of named units, but you can pass for example (units myGrp) or whatever, as long as it returns an array of units.
