Can I set weapons for every soldier with a mod? e.g. all soldiers have welrods

[Tsarbombaad]

I wish to make a mod where it is just a classical invasion map but all the squads, both player and AI, spawn in with only welrods, no medkits or knifes. Is there a way to do that? Is there also a way to copy the official invasion maps into a mod? And will it be difficult for a person without modding experience? thanks!

yes, you can change AI profile weapons in order to spawn with only whatever you want, and the same goes for players.

but, untimately it’s somewhat of a no.

because the bots profile that you will set, will work in multiplayer.

however, unfortunately for the players profile, those will not saved. and therefore they will use the equipment that they have brought.

it’s a current limitation of the editor.
we will have to wait for a fix.

but for the moment,

if you want, you can set the bots ones for the time being:

Custom Profiles Guide

There have been a lot of questions about custom squads, profiles recently, and i thought I would make a post about what i know, and explain how they work to my best knowledge. First of all custom profiles currently don’t work to their fullest. (Event profiles do) Only profiles for bots work online. *Player profiles works ONLY IN LOCAL MODE. (Probably to prevent access to late game content by devs to new players) As a start i will load the squad profile that was used for the Sea Predator eve…

Yes. Use gun_game_mode_logic.

Edit gun_game__resetSpawnsTimeout from 20 to 1000000?
(This property change respawns team per X time).

Remove almost all levels and leave one.

And there write your weapon.

In selectedSessionWeapon.

One problem will be by using this way… And it’s…

You can’t hide gun game hud. As result capture points maybe will be a bit less informative.

Is this lone fighters only or can this work in squads with AI squadmates? Thanks!

[Devenddar]

Squads… Well… Gun game should remove all main equipment and medkits.
If you will not touch custom_profile then yeah. It should able you play with squads.

Could I use an event profile to remove all weapons? And if so how? I also need to know for a custom gamemode idea.

@Blue_Dry

you’ll have to elaborate a bit better on that.

what do you mean by remove all weapons?.

[Blue_Dry]

So I’m building a gamemode I will call Arms Race. Objectives are set 1km apart and either team can capture them. Players spawn unarmed and must race to each objective in civilian vehicles in hopes of ariving first and grabbing the rewources and weapons avaliable at a cache near (not on) each objective.

So I want players to spawn with nothing at the start except maybe a knife. And when they respawn I would like them to also spawn with either nothing, or possibly keep their inventory.

Thanks.

as explained above, you cannot give players custom loadouts.

your best bets, are:

though i can’t say much regarding what my colleague said because i do not like that way ( due to clutter the UI ) nor i ever touched gunmodes nodes ( and never will. i simply do not like the gamemode either )
