- Valid commands include: "FORWARD", "SLOW", "FAST" "BACK", "LEFT", "RIGHT", "STOP", "FIRE", "CEASE FIRE", "MANUAL FIRE", "CANCEL MANUAL FIRE". There may be more.
Only vehicles crewed by a player can use sendSimpleCommand. - Killzone_Kid
- Other commands that work: "KEY FIRE", "KEY FAST", "KEY SLOW", "KEY DOWN", "KEY UP". These will simulate key presses.
In Arma 3 player doesn't always need to be in the vehicle to give commands.
