Notes from before the conversion:

It is often helpful to use doTarget first.

Hurricane

A unit will not execute this command when his behaviour is set to "careless".

unitName doFire objNull does not work like it does in commandFire. Target var has to be real (Arma 2:OA) might be different in other versions.
