Ban.txt

[WildFire6 10]

I placed a txt file in both the appdata and root folders, however its not updating. Anyone know where its supposed to be and if its implemented? Only info available on search pertains to A2. Thanks.

It´s supposed to be in your ArmA root Folder. It does update for me there...

So in the steamapps common A3 folder then? I have it in there does it not update until you stop the server?

*Edit im using baretail to watch it real-time, doesnt seem to be updating using #exec ban name

Yes.. Path is Steamapps\common\ArmA3 Alpha , where your arma3.exe is aswell..

After login, I use #userlist to check the Player ID and then do #exec ban ID

It should update itself within a minute or so. Check out if it´s set to 'read-only' maybe ?

I've just checked, if I execute command #exec ban ID it doesen't work..

So I've tried #userlist and I used #exec ban n°

N° is the first number at the left of the line before the nick

In this way I've banned the player and file ban.txt was create and inside there was the ID of the player, not number or nick.

It's a faster solution than write all the ID

Ramius Thank you, that worked, ban nick does not. Awesome!

Umm.. I actually mean that User-ID which it gives you when checking by #userlist so #exec ban 18. Sorry if I said it unclear.

Yep, I tried this last night and it did not work.

[WildFire6 10]

Yeah obviously since I thanked you I meant your method worked I just said it wrong.
