- Here is a neat workaround trick for firemode change from a script:
_weapon = currentWeapon player; _ammo = player ammo _weapon; player setAmmo [_weapon, 0]; player forceWeaponFire [_weapon, "FullAuto"]; player setAmmo [_weapon, _ammo]; - Posted on Apr 14, 2014

- (A3 1.16) forceWeaponFire is no longer only limited to units, but can remote aircrafts weapon firing as well. Passed source unit should be the correct one who controls the weapon, if passed mode is "this", use the weapon name instead:
_weapon = (weapons _veh) select 3; _mode = (getArray (configFile >> "cfgweapons" >> _weapon >> "modes")) select 0; if (_mode == "this") then {_mode = _weapon;}; (driver _veh) forceWeaponFire [_weapon, _mode]; //Force a CAS fire a rocket.Currently this command is not available for land vehicle remote fire.
