Arma 3 STABLE Server 2.16 "profiling / performance binary" feedback

Recommended Posts

My last unit and now my new unit absolutely HATE this stupid idle timer for our small milsim groups. What's the current news on how to disable it? I'm really surprised there isn't more uproar about it because it's one of those "features" that I'm sure 99% of server owners never asked for. It's been a huge headache and has disrupted the way we operate.

Last night we did op preparation like we would any other night. Zero idle kicks. So looks like setting votingTimeOut, roleTimeOut, briefingTimeOut, debriefingTimeOut and lobbyIdleTimeout to -1 disables it. The odd thing is the kickIDs don't seem to match the documentation as I explained above. However, as we barely ever use admin kicks in our group we have that set to a short timer for now. Hopefully the kickIDs can be better structured in the future so that manual kicks can be made more permanent without them applying to the fairly common signature check failures too.

 

Our final config is as follows:


kickTimeout[] = { {0, 60}, {1, 30}, {2, 60}, {3, 30} };
votingTimeOut = -1;
roleTimeOut = -1;
briefingTimeOut = -1;
debriefingTimeOut = -1;
lobbyIdleTimeout = -1;

Hopefully that helps other groups out.

 

Is there any way to use this in a windows server with TADST?

so it came to my attention that there is still bug in `kickTimeout` vs `lobbyIdleTimeout` and it keeps using the typeID 0 for the timer after kicked for idling :frowning:

WARNING:  this is HIGHLY experimental build

may break scripting which depends on createVehicleLocal (which could be insafe for multiplayer)

please update your scripting accordingly (either to use createSimpleObject or CreateVehicle for correct multiplayer global sync)

 

1.92.145742 new PROFILING branch with PERFORMANCE binaries, v07, server and client, windows 32/64-bit, included linux 32-bit server

+ more crash fixes (not included in 1.92.main yet)

+ scripting command createVehicleLocal was restricted in multiplayer 
enter-able vehicles, shots, explosions and similar are no longer possible to spawn 
(the legacy behavior can be turned on via "unsafeCVL=1;" in the description.ext or server's config)
+ new optional parameter added to scripting command createSimpleObject
createSimpleObject [par1, par2. local]; // as bool, to enable local only effect

1.92.145755 new PROFILING branch with PERFORMANCE binaries, v08, server and client, windows 32/64-bit, included linux 32-bit server

+ more crash fixes (not included in 1.92.main yet)

+ Fixed: Headless clients are no longer taken into account when voting nor when switching server states

+ Default values for timeout changed back to original values before lobbyIdleTimeout introduced:

 votingTimeOut=60;

 roleTimeOut=90;

 briefingTimeOut=60;

 debriefingTimeOut=45; 

 lobbyIdleTimeout=0; //turned off by default

note: all the fixes are still in place and server.cfg settings are still available

 

+ unsafeCVL turned ON by default e.g. unsafeCVL=1; //legacy mode active

(this is in reverse  compared to 1.92.145742)

 

note: no linux server yet (next week)

samatra already told me, if you run the unsafeCVL=0; (aka safeCVL enabled)

then there is issue which needs to be addressed

 

in the normal (legacy) unsafeCVL it all shall work fine

1.92.145767 new PROFILING branch with PERFORMANCE binaries, v09, server and client, windows 32/64-bit, included linux 32-bit server

- reverted changes from builds 145755 / 14542 which added attempt for 'safe' CreateVehicleLocal 

different approach needs to be made, to cause less headache, such revision will take time (so not sooner than for 1.96)

 - for new traffic info NG = non guaranteed , G = guaranteed (?-BE means BattlEye traffic)

+ fixed debriefing after missionEnd

 - when using server.cfg settings (missionsToServerRestart,missionsToServerShutdown)

 - when using admin command #shutdownaftermission , #restartserveraftermission

+ fix for freeze related to SAM/LOAL missiles

- issue with the commandline parsing (side-ffect vs linux ) 

- the #monitords reporting negative memory values
