Could you give some more detail? Are you trying to use directionalspinner or omni? What issues are you encountering?

Oh the weapon doesn't work. I've tried it with omni and directionalspinner, neither work.

How are you wiring the spinner? It should be a button labelled 'spin' for Omni at least.

Yeah. Have you got any weapons defined on the end of the bindings line? If the line doesn't say the bot has weapons, the bot won't use them.

Download Apanx's bot exporter, and it'll tell you all the numbers of the weps. You may have to download and install a file for windows though.
Man this needed an update. Anyways, Your local autistic idiot signing out.

You don't even have to do that - usually just putting 1 or something works. If you find the correct numbers, the weapon will automatically stop working if that component is broken off, but to save time just using something like 1 works as that's inside the chassis so the weapon will just keep running. BY all means though, if you want to do it properly you can find out the component numbers.
