How to get "Automated Fire" on a weapon?

I am trying to get my needler to fire automatically because I am following the tutorial on this site to create artificial rain. It calls for the new weap.ifp plugin and so I went to haloplugins and the only one they have is listed under incomplete ifp's. So i posted there and they said that it worked find. So i copy and pasted the code into ifp and ifp2 in the entity plugins folder and now when i go to my duplicated needler and go to the meta editor and under firing info it still says only R, L, or SP only and there is no automated fire listed there. If someone knows how to get this to work or knows how to get it to work in Insolene too please post here and tell me how.

Thank You.

I'm not sure why, the obvious thing is that the plugin just isn't loading correctly. It loads fine for me. Also, Wayworn, he doesn't mean automatic, he means automated, I.E, it will always fire. Also, to get it to work in insolence, just paste the same code into the .ifp plugin in Insolence's plugin folder. Entity and Insolence use the same formatting for plugins.

you have to reload entity for it to load a changed plugin
