At whits end over init script for weapons..., Pulling hair over script errors. Options

[OperationDidgeridon't]

Alright, so maybe "whits end" is a bit much, but it is starting to frustrate me. I've recently gotten started on my quest to edit Arma to do my evil bidding, and have immediately run into a snag. I know how much you guys hate seeing the same ol' questions being espoused, but I assure you I have lurked amongst these threads for days now trying to find a solution (and have also downloaded a few editing guides) and still come up with zilch.

Basically what I'm looking to do is put a different weapon in the hands of a character than the one normally assigned to him. I've been trying to use the init box for this unit to do so. Here is how I'm typing this out:

removeallweapons this; this add magazine "30Rnd_556x45Stanag"; this addweapons "m16a2"

I realize the above would only allot me one magazine, just didn't want to type all of that out. So what am I doing wrong? I either get the "type any expected nothing" message, or the "missing ;" message.

Any and all help will be greatly appreciated!

removeallweapons this; this add magazine "30Rnd_556x45Stanag"; this addweapons "m16a2"

Should be

CODE

removeallweapons this;this addmagazine "30Rnd_556x45Stanag";this addweapon "m16a2";

No spaces in addmagazine, no "S" in addweapon.

Should be

Awesome, bro! Thanks! I promise not to bog you guys down with this stuff again.
