How to stop unauthorised scripts being used in a missing.

Recommended Posts

I am wondering whether or not there are way to prevent other people using scripts in someone elses missions.

The reason I ask this, is because someone came into our server, and was able to run a script that spawned in a vehicle that was not in the mission then blew up all the helicopters in the friendly base.

He respawned in a Ka-60 from the opfor who are all AI. No air vehicle for the opfor side is in the mission.

Also is Battleye is active for Arma 3.

Its possible, but you would need some scripting knowledge.

I dont have that information, but its exactly what BE does.

Although we dont have BE yet, so we can only wait or try to make some scripts on our own.

Although it isn't possible to block the execution of a script, it is possible for you to write your own counter-script systems that would check for things that aren't normal in your mission. For example, you said someone spawned a KA-60 (which isn't used in the mission); so you'd make a script that checks for any KA-60's and then get the pilot's name and disable their input while spamming their name in chat (or whatever way you want it to tell you that the person is cheating.)

One answer for now: Verifysignature = 2; in your server.cfg file.

Any server not using this and without an admin present 24/7 WILL be "hacked" (usually a script kiddie using someone else work) at some point or another.

That will stop everyone from using not explicitly allowed addons (including various cheat ingame consoles). This is a must for every server.

Then sometimes, a more skilled cheater comes and uses external program to modify arma binaries in memory. That's what battlEye is for.

Well, in theory anyways.
