CAMPAIGNSPACE for Arma 3, how does it work?

[LSValmont 789]

So I have been doing some research about a MULTIPLAYER save implementation for my missions and I stumbled upon this: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/saveVar

 

Its description reads: Save variable value into the campaign space.

 

So what is this "Campaign Space"?

 

I haven't been able to find anything on it.

 

1) How do we access it?

2) How do we enable it on our missions?

3) Does it work for multiplayer?

4) Can we use it as an alternative to ProfileNameSpace?

 

Has anyone used it before and knows about this?

getter seems not implemented

 

for SP there is

https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/loadStatus

https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/saveStatus

 

so seems not usable. either PNS or some DB solution

Same as campaignConfigFile (different from configFile/missionConfigFile) there is also a campaign variable namespace that is stored with the campaign and pulled along through multiple missions.

There is no way to directly access it like you can with profileNamespace.

Its set into missionNamespace on mission start. Kind of like publicVariable from a server
