This can also be used as alternative to canAddItemToBackpack, canAddItemToUniform, canAddItemToVest where container might not be strictly defined. In some cases it might be a good optimisation for your code, where you also don't need to perform checks on which type of player container this is. Example:
private _container = selectRandom [uniformContainer player, vestContainer player, backpackContainer player]; if (_container canAdd "Rangefinder") then { _container addItemCargoGlobal ["Rangefinder", 1]; };
