Get Magazine for Current Weapon

[mantls 2]

Hey there,

i'm adding Weapons to units randomly and am trying to add fitting Mags.

I was trying to get them from the config by using:

_weapon = currentWeapon _unit;
sleep 0.1;
_cfg = getArray (configFile >> "CfgWeapons" >> _weapon >> "magazines");
sleep 0.1;
_count = count _cfg;
hint format ["found %1", _count];
_mag = _cfg select 0;
_unit addMagazine _mag;

The Hint/Array however returns 0.

Help is much appreciated :)

Here's the BIS_fnc_addWeapon function, might give you some hints.
