0.9.4: Add LMGs back in

[Terd Fergasen 20]

After 0.9.4, I would like to add LMGs and ammo back into the game.  

I would like to:

1. Add weapons/ammo into the Exile loot system - probably edits to config.cpp in the mission pbo
2. Allow it server-side - probably edits to exile_server_config.pbo
3. Add weapons/ammo back to vendors - probably edits to config.cpp in the mission pbo

Can someone explain this process?

Side note: Weapons/ammo is already a part of a 3rd party loot system and after server reboots the ammo disappears, but the weapon remains in the player's inventory... This example is why I think step #2 is necessary.

Thanks guys,
Terd

Uncomment the lines in your mission config.cpp where the buy/sell prices are listed (this lets them be bought or sold generally), or add them there if they are missing, and make sure the classnames are added down below in the config.cpp to the armory trader (this puts them in the trader).

Sounds like they are already showing up in your loot spawns.

The ammo disappearing is likely caused by the ammo bug everyone, including me, is reporting.

Is the ammo bug an Exile bug or an Arma bug?

[Spartan 85]

Not exactly sure. I've heard some wondering whether it was related to how heavy your inventory is when you log in (related to the Arma stamina updates), but I have no idea.
