How to detect a magazine in a vest? - vanha - 09-10-2014

Hi.
Already chatted with Alwarren earlier about this but the method of an array check combined to new scripting commands gives me a headache.

I was hoping to avoid using ye olde "area cleared" method in a task where a group will overtake an enemy depot and scavenge some demo/satchel charges.
I foolishly was thinking of hasWeapon check but of course the satchel counts as magazine so then I was thinking of the new scripting possibilities but so far no prevail.
Any ideas how to check if a unit has picked up a certain magazine inside the vest?

(vestMagazines, magazinesDetailVest etc....)

You should be able to check via

Code:
_magazines = getMagazineCargo (vestContainer _person);
if (_magazinename in (_magazines select 0)) then {
  // _person has a magazine of the given name
};

That simple, eh?
Thank you, I'll give it a go.
