Guards can only use a few specific weapons, fyi. Which weapons are you trying to have the guards equip?

I’ve tried a bunch from combat shotgun to lmg and had similar results. So if I assign a non compatible weapon it will work but only sometimes? I looked up UEFN guard weapons and found nothing, is there a list somewhere?

I think the only ‘list’ I’ve seen is when you try to equip them in creative mode compared to UEFN. I haven’t done it in a while though. I know the og pump shotgun works, the og sub machine gun, the og assault rifle, and the standard pistol. Most other weapons I’m not sure about but most do not work. A list would be great but I’m not aware of any.

Hm good to know, still going to keep this up as a bug because if half the time they can spawn with these “unallowed” weapons and use them fine it seems like they are close to being able to use any weapon 100% of the time, which is probably the devs intention
