    Simplest way is to watch a video tutorial for Arma 3... that's the same. Search for something like "universal ammo box" ;) If you got some understanding of programming/scripting... The Arma 3 doc is really helpful, "complete" and easy to go through.

    Download and use the Mission Templates as a starting point. Good luck.

    Can a single player play Argo ?

    Yes ou can play alone in Combat Patrol... The other game modes are PvP only though. The easiest way IMO, is to launch the Combat Patrol mission from the HOST tab in the Server Browser.

    Bohemia Game Servers?

    No guarantee at all. At your own risk ;) Everyone get 25 skill points to spend on the skill tree. So it's up to you to spend them where you want. There's no way to have all the best weapons unlocked, attachments, etc. Aside from scripting and hosting your own mission.
  5. @Checker8763, Yeah, they used to give in-game money on official servers only. The money was used to buy individual gear (cosmetics, weapons,etc) or resetting the Skill Tree. But, since Argo is not supported anymore, they've maxed out everyone's level to 25 and everything is also free now.

    Editor: Respawn object (balloon...)

    Hi @flyingcoyotus, Try this code, it should works at least to setup yourself a little. There is probably better ways to achieve the same, but maybe you'll find it useful.
  7. I confirm that urfinjuce is NOT a troll. He's also a good contributor to the community (forums and feedback). (Even if we don't always agree ;)) Also played couples of Combat Patrol with him in the past and I don't remember having a bad time then. Btw, the level of an account doesn't bring any relevant information about a player IMO.

    please change a game litel bit

    Hi @goldberg1, People already asked for more maps (locations) and more weapons, since the release, but they always answered that they have no plans going into that direction. So the solutions: - Get the missions templates (Link, Raid, Clash, Combat Patrol) and add yourself new locations on the map to play on (In the Editor). Add the loadouts you want or an Arsenal Box. (using scripts) Then you host it yourself on your computer or rent a server if you want. Of course this would requires you to learn a lot of about custom missions. - Buy Arma 3... cause they want you to do so and it should be a lot easier ;)
  9. You can say what ever you want... At least someone gives answers sometimes and some people appreciate that. So I don't care what you think. Since ITokyYourCookie left project Argo... it's not the same. But I guess that Midnighters could help you... 4 years in the BI forums... he should know everyone by his name I presume and being able to guide you better than me for that part.
  10. No problem, Other than the name's history, everything is pretty doable though, but still unfriendly a little. Good luck with your project :)
  11. Seems that unfortunately you're right... The User's ID and even the Bohemia's account ID are not "reserved", so they change over time. I was using that to track some players (cheaters & Team Killers)... in case they change their user name, but seems I was wrong. There's still ways to achieve a good part of what you want, but this would be somewhat a hard labor. Like, you scrap everything and put it in your own database... every 4 hours or so, then if someone's nickname disappear from your old data, you know that he has changed his name, so you get his old data and find the new player that has the closest data to the player that disappeared. Sure, this method could compromise the integrity of the data, so if you're not feeling it, you'll have to forget about "name's history". Not sure if it make sens, but that's an idea.
  12. Not sure if you're talking about players' stats or game stats... but there is only the Steam API for some servers stats that is public I may think. For players' stats, you will need to "scrap" the data yourself from another source(s).

    why was i banned

    It just needs one other player that captured / recorded you doing one of those things to get banned... Sure most of them should have only got you temporary banned, but at least now, someone will give you a more detailed answer.

    Weapons Refund

    Hi @zomaah23, Unfortunately there is no refund or you can't sell back your weapons. You'll need to play to get that money back. Next time, try the weapons and gear in the Armory prior to buying them. Try them all right now, so you know what you'll need to focus your skill points and money on. Cause there is not much room for mistakes here... resetting the skill tree cost also money ;) Hope this can help you make better decision in the future.

    why was i banned

    No use of any hacking software, no cheating, no exploit of glitches, no disrespect to others in text or audio chat, no team kills ? If so, or you don't understand those adequately or they made a mistake. Hope this will be more clear soon.
  16. Hi @Sn0z, Almost everything in Argo / Arma, must be scripted by hand... You can find useful information here and more particularly into the "See Also" section at the bottom. If you got technical questions, better go ask them into the Arma 3 forums. Hope this can help you a little to know where to start. Honestly, I really doubt that they will add this to the game... Much of your requests are features in Arma 3 and they want you to buy it ;)

    connect impossible

    Hi @rejeant10, Hard to tell if there's staff reading posts in here ;) Maybe you could try again in the section Troubleshooting of the forums. Hope you'll get more luck there.

    I want my points please Bohemia Interactive!

    2750 XP is achievable in only 1 match (~30 mins) in Combat Patrol, you may have played it only one time, no ? About Witch Hunt, I don't know though, never played it.

    Ask us anything!

    You'll probably going to get that kind of answer... "Sorry, but we got no plans on adding new maps or vehicles". The hackers / cheaters problem is a constant WIP... Since the release of Argo, there are cheaters... nothing really new there. "Ban once and for all", isn't something that the Argo's team is willing to do I may believe. How many known cheaters are still in game ? Probably a lot. Like in Combat Patrol... A lot of players are exploiting a glitch for more than 2 months now (since I reported it), nothing have been done since :( As Yoshi_E said, you can report them on the "Report a Player" page of the official website. You'll need really good proof to get any results. Best chance with video as it is probably harder to modify. Nothing much would happen to them, a short "temporary suspended account" I guess. For sure this isn't a problem like cheaters.... you can always mute them by yourself, but there's no permanent muting for players. Personally, I don't care about those particular words, if they are not spammed though. And no need of particular words to cross the line of disrespect IMO ;)

    Unfortunately, lot of players think the same way as him... they cheat, but think that it is part of the game and allowed / accepted.
  21. EricR

    This is CHEATING... Exploiting glitches or any bugs is cheating.
  22. EricR

    Ask us anything!

    Obviously, _MLG_GAM3R was cheating (glitch exploit). Keep in mind that the Argo team is small and really really slow. So don't expect actions to be taken soon, and if they do, it's probably gonna be "temporary suspended account" for him, similar to what would get your friend TeamKilling him ;) I don't think that the team got plans in that direction. Argo is meant to be a simple version of Arma. There is already weapon sway and stamina enabled in-game. It's just less "handicapping" than it is in Arma.

    Yeah, maybe tomorrow. But while waiting ;) ...

    Triangle

    Hi @Ermin Šahinović, First, be aware that the Friendly Marker is only available in PvP game modes (Link, Raid, Clash), NOT PvE (Combat Patrol). The Friendly Marker can be found under the HUD option. You can turn it on/off before or after a match in the Options, but NOT while playing. Hope this help.
