Adding/removing NON-MOUNT magazines - 2/6/2014 8:35:39 AM

I found what I was looking for re mount mags. It's awesome how you add the mount and the magazine is automatically added, then you're able to edit the weapons in the magazine. Great UI!

Now, what I'm having trouble with is reloading mounts that don't have their own mount mags, eg Sea Cat, Phalanx, etc.
Is there a workaround for this? I tried to add their weapons records to another existing, yet different type, magazine, but they didn't reload. I tried adding Sea Cat rounds to the helicopter mag of the ship, but still nothing.

Also, as per my original post (which I deleted thinking I had cracked it), would be possible to add the options of "add/remove" magazine to the bottom of the magazine dialog box?
Additionally, the stated example in the manual uses Magazine ID #240. Where can a list of the magazine ID #'s be found?

Cheers!

For the time being, the best solution is probably to use the SBR functionality

It is weird that the mounts aren't reloading when adding new types of weapons. Any chance you could upload a save for us to look at? Thanks!

Should probably also make a list if all ID# for mounts, magazines, sensors (incl sensor groups) and comm gear in the database. Will try to get it done this weekend.

Thanks

Thanks for the fast reply mate!
I'll have another look at the SBR function.
As for the save, I'll try to replicate it but what you're saying is mounts without attached mags should reload, even if their ammo is in an related amagazine (e.g. Sea Cat rounds in a Corvus chaff mag)?

Cheers!

Not yet, didn't get time to finish that bit before release. It's on my to-do list.
