When you get in and out of a vehicle it will change the firemode of your rifle to the default setting.

If you got a Rifle, a Katiba for example, where the default fire mode ist set to single fire and you get in to a vehicle while it is on full auto, it will change back to the default setting- In this case, single fire.
This is not very realistic and can cause your Charater to lose his life in hectic scenarios. For example during a firefight shortly after a car crash.

Hi, Ive just tried with katiba in mp and sp, no problem, firemode stays full auto when getting out. Could you post detailed steps how to repro the bug please?
Hi!
"Changing Weapons fire mode to default in Vehicles" - why is this problem listed ONLY in vehicles? The changing weapons fire mode to default occurs always and without vehicles, when the player changes his weapon from primary to pistol or from primary to launcher.
I am worried about this since 2013, weapons in Arma3 can't remember their fire mode before changing another weapon or when it was just thrown to the ground!
I would really like the weapon to remember its previous mode of fire (automatic / single), if this weapon was changed to another (located on the back) or if this weapon was thrown to the ground. It's like real life
"It has been fixed in dev"
I can't believe what you said!
Are you sure weapon will keep current fire mode, even without vehicles?
If the player changed the primary weapon to the pistol and back to the primary weapon, the fire mode will not be reset from default?
it will even keep it in multiplayer if you put it down and someone else picks it up. there is still a bug however it will reset mode if you are changing weapon, but if you put down your weapon first and take another, it persists

This is awesome and great!
But I didn't understand anything about the error...

Please explain more clearly - what mistake are we talking about?.
I didn't understand if memorizing the fire mode will work constantly and under any circumstances?
Or it will only work under certain conditions, only sometimes?
now it works in 95% cases, but in some edge cases it still resets, but we haven’t done with it yet, so expect more fixes
It has been fixed in dev
Good day! a day ago we received the Arma 2.06 update, but it still didn't have this feature, even though you said it was already fixed in dev(
I was looking forward to this detail in the game, but it is still not there. I would like to know when this will appear in the game - when will the weapon be able to remember the current firing mode?
Are there any problems implementing this?
2.06 and current dev are different branches. what is currently on dev is what will be in 2.08
Ok, now firemode also persists on weapon swap (Revision: 148605) please test thoroughly

Probably we are talking only about the dev version. Can you please tell me when it will be possible to check it in the stable branch?
Next update 2.08 coming soon or not?
Thank you @BIS_fnc_KK! I ask about this because I dreamed of such a function for 8 years.
Happy New Year to you!
Alleluia! Today is a historic day in Arma3!
player got a patch 2.08, and now player can see that the weapon remembers its current fire mode, I've been waiting for this fix > 8 years!
BIS I want to thank you, but you are delaying such important corrections too much...
