reforger / arm4 - external database

Recommended Posts

Do we all love role playing and other stuff that require the server to somehow save data in a persistent way. For A3 extDB3 is pretty much the way to go unless you want to write your own extension (which I did) - but what about reforger and A4? ArmaLife sure will be something to live on - heck, DayZ evolved from it and altis life is still going strong in some countries. There sure will be "demand" for role play modes in the next titles.

 

Unfortunate the Biki doesn't give much yet for external modding for reforger - and it's still a long way till A4. In the stream it was pointed out enfusion is built with player created content in mind - but user created content includes more what the game itself gives us - and as previous games got us the extension api (although limited - it's enough for a database connector) it would be hard to miss this feature in the next game.

 

Another cool option could be if enfusion would come with a database connector already built in like for MySQL/MariaDB and SQLite3. Or providing a more general interface like JDBC in Java wich is a standardized interface which can be implemented specfic to the used backend.

 

Would love to get some official replies about this topic.
