fire

Description

Forces a unit to fire the given weapon.

Note

Just like with forceWeaponFire it is possible to pass remote unit as argument, but this could be unreliable. Considering this command might need to be used in combination with selectWeapon, which takes only local arguments, it would make sense to execute the fire command where the unit is local as well.
