why not mod the sniper to carry a 50cal single shot rifle. He could knock out light armor with it. This could be a benefit of rank possible by making it only sgt's.

If your asking how, you need to change the sniper weapon's damage type from SNIPER to something like GATTLING or something. I haven't ever made a rank-specific weapon before, but check out the quad cannon's .ini scripting. It has many upgrades thru the ranks.

The gattling damage type would probably make the sniper worse unless you raised the damage alot. I would suggest creating a new damage type and then control how much damage you want it to do to every vehicle in the armor properties. (For example, change the ranger flashbang's damage type to "MELEE" and then use "SURRENDER" for your sniper damage type.) Or you can change the armor properties in the Armor.ini for "SNIPER", but then Jarmen gets some of the effects from the changes.

DO try giving the sniper high damage gattling damagetype, its really fun actually. EVERYTHING IS VAPORIZED!!!!!!!!!!!! I even made it able to attack planes and missiles, which all of a sudden makes the USA the most unbalanced side.
