Hi guys!
How do I make a unit not shoot all its weapons at the same time?
I am modifying a helicopter and it has Missiles and RocketPod Upgrade.
When I send him to attack, he fires his rockets with the missiles at the same time ...
What should I do?

depend on the result you want
anyway some option:
1) set the weapon set like this :
WeaponSet
Conditions = NONE
Weapon = PRIMARY Minigun
Weapon = SECONDARY Missiles
PreferredAgainst = SECONDARY STRUCTURE , force the unit to use missile only vs bulding , but use the minigin during the reload time
End
2) A manual Weapon Switc like the scud launcer\nuke cannon
need more unit management but force unit to use only 1 weapon
3) Like The America Comance roket pod , like metod 2 need more unit management
anyway some option:

I have it configured in the following way:
WeaponSet
Conditions = None
Weapon = PRIMARY ApacheHellfireMissileWeapon
PreferredAgainst = PRIMARY VEHICLE
End
WeaponSet
Conditions = PLAYER_UPGRADE
Weapon = PRIMARY ApacheHellfireMissileWeaponUP
PreferredAgainst = PRIMARY VEHICLE
Weapon = TERTIARY CobraRocketPodWeapon
AutoChooseSources = TERTIARY NONE
End
WeaponSet
Conditions = None
Weapon = PRIMARY ApacheHellfireMissileWeapon
PreferredAgainst = PRIMARY VEHICLE
End
in this one don't need PreferredAgainst since is only 1 weapon.
the PLAYER_UPGRADE one is fine , if you want ONLY MANUAL fire like the comance.
now you only need to add the button for use the TERTIARY weapon
like this one (change Upgrade if you use a custom one) , and the commandset
Conditions = None
Weapon = PRIMARY ApacheHellfireMissileWeapon
PreferredAgainst = PRIMARY VEHICLE
End

CODE
CommandButton Command_AmericaVehicleComancheFireRocketPods
Command = FIRE_WEAPON
WeaponSlot = TERTIARY
Options = OK_FOR_MULTI_SELECT NEED_UPGRADE NEED_TARGET_POS ; fires at pos, not obj

ButtonBorderType = ACTION; Identifier for the User as to what kind of button this is
DescriptLabel = CONTROLBAR:ToolTipUSAFireRocketPods
