Title: Force AI unit to fire in Burst or Full automatic mode
Post by: johnnyboy on 19 Mar 2008, 17:06:32

Greetings!

Is there a way to script an AI unit to fire his weapon in Burst or Fully automatic mode?

The following code works to force a unit to fire, but he only fires single shots when I would like it to be burst or full auto:

Code: [Select]

rider1 action ["useWeapon",rider1,rider1,1];
The last parameter in the array is Weapon Position 1, which forces him to fire his primary weapon.

I see this command in the WIKI, and I'm hoping the mode parameter is what I want, but I don't know what values to use.

Code: [Select]

_soldier fire ["throw","SmokeShell","SmokeShell"]
The definition for the command is:

Code: [Select]

Unit fire ["muzzle", "mode", "magazine"]
Any ideas anybody?

Not so sure about that, perhaps search the forums or check more on the Biki about the class names.
In any cause why not just repeat "rider1 action ["useWeapon",rider1,rider1,1];" three times, ie:

Code: [Select]

rider1 action ["useWeapon",rider1,rider1,1];
rider1 action ["useWeapon",rider1,rider1,1];
rider1 action ["useWeapon",rider1,rider1,1];

Should that not do what you want?

EDIT: The mode would be "Burst", the Muzzle would be "Ak74" (I think, if it isnt, check this http://www.ofpec.com/forum/index.php?topic=31244.0) and the magazine could be (magazine _soldier)? Perhaps (PrimaryWeapon _soldier) could be the check for the weapon aswell.

What does this have to do with Multiplayer?
