Detect what weapons a unit is carrying

[Colonel_Klink]

Ok as the title says, I'm looking for a script that detects what weapons and ammo a unit is carrying. I know how to remove all weapons but I dont want to remove them all just the current (primary) and secondary.
Thanks

edit.. stupid keyboard makes typos all the time

Hmm, sounds like something interesting on the horizon, eh Klink?

lol Yep mixing pot being stirred bigtime at the moment

Dunno if this will get noticed again, but I got the Primary and secondary weapons sorted, but having problems with the pistol. Can anybody please tell me what slot the pistol fits into. I can addweapon "MyPistol" no problem, but when I want to detect if he is carrying it I'm having problems.
Thanks

That is a problem... there was some workaround to finding pistol, notsure if it was reliable, hmmm


you can play with the weapons array and subtract primary and secondary, but... nvgoggles and binocular will complicate issues. especially since there might be different addons for NVgoggles and binocs out?

EDIT: I believe that was the workaround

Hmm. That is a problem. What I am trying to do is determine if a unit has a handgun of a praticular type so that he/she can take ammo for that handgun.

[bn880]

Of a particular type? Well if you know all the handgun types ahead of time then it's easy right, just check if that type of weapon is in the weapons _unit array.

I doubt that's what you want....

I need to be able to check if the unit has a handgun, discard it, then pick up the one out of the gun rack, then pick up the ammo for it. the primary and secondary slots are no problem but the handgun is a pita
