Rather than simply using selectWeapon to select your default weapon after adding them to your player, it is recommended you use a script instead similar to the following, which caters for multiple muzzles:
SelectWeapon.sqf// Desc: select default weapon & handle multiple muzzles if (count weapons player > 0) then { private['_type', '_muzzles']; _type = ((weapons player) select 0); // check for multiple muzzles (eg: GL) _muzzles = getArray(configFile >> "cfgWeapons" >> _type >> "muzzles"); if (count _muzzles > 1) then { player selectWeapon (_muzzles select 0); } else { player selectWeapon _type; }; };
