uspr111 0 Posted October 14 Hello , Sometimes, when I try to edit the ban.txt file on an active Arma 3 server, I get an error saying the file is in use. This doesn't happen every time, but it disrupts workflow. I suspect it might be related to the file being loaded when a banned player tries to connect, and then it remains locked. Is there anything that can be done to ensure the file is always available for editing? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
