Works great in multiplayer.
The numbers are representing offset as follows : [X axis,Z axis,Y axis]
The return array can be processed-converted into degrees as follows:
_array = _this weaponDirection "weapon class" ; _dir_degrees = (_array select 0) atan2 (_array select 1);

- WeaponClass can only be the primary turret of the vehicle. For example it is not possible to get direction of commander's M2 on M1Abrams.
