Sometimes AI won't shoot when you use this command. It can be fixed by placing selectWeapon command before it.
Posted on February 2, 2007
Ceeeb
In OFP v1.96, when a man class unit is given this command, he will aim up in the air before firing his weapon. This makes it rather useless if you want to make him shoot a target. It does work with vehicles, when the vehicle is first given a doWatch or doTarget command.

Bdfy
In ArmA v1.02, this command is not working with weapons in the secondary turrets (like "DSHKM" in T-72)

Kronzky
To place a satchel (pipebomb) the syntax is:
OFP: unitname Fire ["put", "pipebomb"]
ArmA: unitname Fire ["pipebombmuzzle", "pipebombmuzzle", "pipebomb"];
The triggering is done via a "TOUCHOFF" action.

In Arma 2, AI will automatically shoot straight up. Command seems to be broken.

Command is broken - confirmed. Use action "USEWEAPON" instead. Place a game logic in the editor. Name it MyGameLogic. Use this code to make unit1 fire his primaryweapon: MyGameLogic action ["useWeapon", primaryWeapon unit1, unit1, 0];

Command works just fine in A2/OA. Make sure to execute it on local AI.

If it did work at one time, it does no longer. The AI (or player) is forced to look upwards or reacts to a massive recoil force before getting his shot off.

Command did not work with ACR 1.62. Use fireAtTarget instead.
