It really annoys me when every time I want to make a soldier with a custom load out I have to scroll through web-pages and then type all that stuff in.

So is there any tool that just reads weapon/magazine class names from configs and lets you select how much of each stuff you want? And then gives you a text that you can just copy paste into the soldier's init field.

Or any other tool like this?

ASC has an addon that lets you customize your weapons, loadouts, I dunno...

I don't know about that, but here's something that may make your life a little easier. It copies a unit's gear to the clipboard so you can just paste it straight into another unit's init line.

copyToClipboard format ["removeAllWeapons this; {this addMagazine _x;} forEach %1; {this addweapon _x;} foreach %2;",magazines player,weapons player]

Put that in a radio trigger, take control of a unit whose gear you want, and activate the trigger. Then just go back into the editor and CTRL+V the result into another unit's init. This saves you having to trawl through the ammo classnames online.

Thanks that works, but can you include the backpack contents there?


Still it's quite strange that there are so many tools for the editor that make using it more comfortable but seem to be none of this kind
