Changing to NVGoggles just plays an animation, not actually setting NV mode. Unfortunately, the list of firing modes seems to only be created when a soldier is initiated; modes are removed from the list when a weapon is dropped and not re-added when a weapon is picked up. Thus, only use this during the initiation phase of the soldier. On vehicles, where the weapons are not likely to be changed, this action might be useful after the vehicle has been initiated.
