cutscene linked to "fired" eh

[MI_Fred]

this addeventhandler ["fired",{[this] exec "mgshot.sqs"}]

Tsk, would it hurt to check out the exact format of the command from comref?   If you had done that, you would've only got one answer that would suffice.

this addEventHandler ["fired",{_this exec "mgshot.sqs"}]
It MUST be followed to the letter, _this in this case means an array of "fired", not the unit in whose init that is in. "fired" _this will contain that unit, the weapon, ammo, muzzle and all that, while this [_this] would contain only the unit, and ofp won't understand why an EH won't contain anything else, as far as I can comprehend it's picky ways.

Confirmed, error in addEventHandler syntax.

Damn "_this" operators can get confusing sometimes...

As you say, Fred, OFP doesn't really care about case or spaces (unless you put them in the middle of commands...), but it does get fussy about what you do with the "this" operator.

And I quote Psychic Command Directive No. 2:

When all else fails, return to the ComRef.
