FAQ: Vehicle Weapons and Ammo

[Pave Low]

One question that is regularly asked is how to find out the correct ammunition for vehicles

well, one way to find this info would be to put each vehicle on a map in the editor and in it's init line put

this addeventhandler ["fired",{hint format["%1",_this]}]

then fire the Main gun/Coax MG Etc and it should list the

weapon
muzzle
mode
ammo

EG for the ASLAV's the Ammunition is as follows:

M242 = Bushmaster25HE
Mag58 = Bullet7_6W
Mgun = Bullet12_7
Mk19 = MK19HH

and the M1a1 it's:

SABOT = Heat120
HEAT = Shell120

MGun = Bullet12_7
