MGI ADVANCED MODULES Hi all, Here is an addon for mission makers. If you need to easily spawn some factions, some civilian life or just add randomized weapons loot in houses... If you want an advanced AI heal & revive, for SP or MP mission, able to heal players or bros.. ... or respawning AIs, in waves or at once.. If you want a transport support on any vehicle... A vehicle respawn system with crew, waypoints, loadouts, addActions, arsenal.... Friendly kill sanction... AI cannons able to fire HE shells on infantry... Some generators able to switch on/off a district... or adapt silencers to combat behavior... or perhaps a simple tool for reading all map object classes/display names/p3d model names... Other tools like tire puncture on barbed wires? ... And of course, MP compatible, favorite mods compatible... Here you are. MODULES on Steam: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1682280809 The summary is just here. The modules are described and explained in an updated documentation: DOCUMENTATION LINK Have fun! Pierre MGI

First of all, I'm a non-English speaking player, so I'm relying on a translator since my English skills are terrible. (Translating using Naver’s Papago.) I'm trying to help famous Korean streamers enjoy Arma 3. In Korea, Arma 3 had a lot of difficulty accessing various information as the number of people active in it decreased significantly due to the DDoS incident that lasted about two years. (I feel infinite envy for those whose native language is English.) This streamer continues to enjoy Arma 3 with his fans and other streamers. In 2022, about 80 people gathered to enjoy the simplified King of the Hill, and in 2023 and at the end of March this year, about 80 people gathered in Altis and Tanoa to enjoy the marathon. Before enjoying content focused on war and combat, research is needed on server problems and optimization, but it is difficult to get help from the Korean community because such a large server has never been serviced in Korea. Our goal is to have 100+ people in one session playing PvP, and I was wondering if I could get some help. Q1. Would using TFAR or ACRE rather than Arma 3's VON reduce the burden on the server? Q2. I saw a topic saying that increasing server bandwidth can reduce desynchronization. Is this still valid? And what is the maximum? Q3. How much will the frame rate drop when 100+ players battle across the area? Please understand that I have too many questions. I hope you have a nice day. 🙂 Add, I think I picked the wrong topic. This is my mistake as I am not familiar with the forum.

Hey people. So, i've been editing a Liberation mission for me and a couple of friends. However, the modlist we use is a little bit extense, and some mods include gear / equipment from other countries. Furthermore, these mods are necessary for the liberation mission, as the enemy force will be spawned from units from these mods. As i want to make something very standardized, i don't want people using gear from my country and then having somebody using a freaking russian helmet or whatever. To solve that problem i thought of hiding the arsenal option in the Main base and FOBs (By adding "//" to the arsenal script in the liberations source folder) and instead of having a full arsenal, having a tent with various cabinets and, by these cabinets, there are triggers that, once a player enters it's area, a loadout is assigned to that player. This is how it works: You enter the trigger Area, the trigger removes all of your gear, equipment and items and assign you new clothes, weapons, gear and items to replace the ones you've had on spawn. I've tested it, and works great. However, on Multiplayer sessions, it seems it stops working for some reason. i've read something about the player variable not working in multiplayer, because player in MP means everyone connected to the server, and not just the player that stepped on the trigger. Basically i want this script to be applied only to the one player that steps on that especific trigger, and not the whole player base. This is how the structure of my script is right now (still broken on MP): {removeVest _x} forEach thisList; {removeBackpack _x} forEach thisList; {removeHeadgear _x} forEach thisList; {removeUniform _x} forEach thisList; {removeAllWeapons _x} forEach thisList; {removeAllBinocularItems _x} forEach thisList; {removeGoggles _x} forEach thisList; {_x unassignItem "NVGoggles"} forEach thisList; {_x removeItem "NVGoggles"} forEach thisList; Player addWeapon "bel_fn_cal"; Player addWeapon "Binocular"; Player addPrimaryWeaponItem "20rd_556x45"; Player addWeapon "BAD_M1911"; Player addHandgunItem "9Rnd_45ACP_Mag"; Player forceAddUniform "BFMexercito_uniform1"; Player addVest "MEA_vest_EB_06"; Player addBackpack "br_alicepack_med"; Player addItemToUniform "ACE_EarPlugs"; Player addItemToUniform "ACE_IR_Strobe_Item"; for "_i" from 1 to 5 do {Player addItemToUniform "ACE_CableTie";}; for "_i" from 1 to 2 do {Player addItemToUniform "ACE_Canteen";}; for "_i" from 1 to 2 do {Player addItemToUniform "ACE_MRE_MeatballsPasta";}; for "_i" from 1 to 2 do {Player addItemToUniform "ACE_WaterBottle";}; Player addItemToUniform "ACE_MapTools"; Player addItemToUniform "ACE_microDAGR"; Player addItemToUniform "ACE_Flashlight_XL50"; Player addItemToUniform "ACE_wirecutter"; Player addItemToUniform "ACE_EntrenchingTool"; Player addItemToUniform "ACRE_PRC343"; for "_i" from 1 to 6 do {Player addItemToUniform "9Rnd_45ACP_Mag";}; for "_i" from 1 to 6 do {Player addItemToVest "20rd_556x45";}; Player addItemToBackpack "NVGoggles_INDEP"; Player addItemToBackpack "Medikit"; for "_i" from 1 to 5 do {Player addItemToBackpack "FirstAidKit";}; for "_i" from 1 to 2 do {Player addItemToBackpack "20rd_556x45";}; for "_i" from 1 to 4 do {Player addItemToBackpack "HandGrenade";}; for "_i" from 1 to 4 do {Player addItemToBackpack "SmokeShell";}; Player addHeadgear "EB_helmet_ballistic_C"; Player addGoggles "G_Tactical_Clear"; Player linkItem "ItemMap"; Player linkItem "ItemCompass"; Player linkItem "ItemWatch"; Player linkItem "ItemRadio"; If anyone knows wich variable i can replace for the player, that'd be a great life-saver. Thanks in advance!

ZKB's PVP Modes is a single mission file that contains multiple PVP gamemodes, perks, score streaks, with persistent stats. This has been an on and off project for the last several years with seemingly endless tweaking and refining of features to make them the best they can be. At the moment there are 2 maps made in the VR world (I like to make things hard for my self) and they can be found within a Steam Workshop Collection or on my Steam Workshop. All mission files work both local host so you can quickly play with friends as well on a dedicated server. There is also a server side addon available here where you can create custom loadouts that players can use and combined with mission parameters you can restrict it to only those loadouts or a combination of premade and player custom. If you have any questions or looking for more information on recommended settings for your server feel free to join my discord server where you can find such information and possibly others to play with. https://discord.gg/aGNSztac8k I also have a dedicated server running only the PVP missions and you are able to vote your self admin and change between the maps and mess around with different parameters.

Once picked up hold on to it to score points. If you die you will drop the flag for others to pick up and after 15 seconds will get reset to a random position. Arcade A free for all Deathmatch mode where you spawn with a basic weapon and no pre-selected Score Streaks. Find other weapons and Score Streaks around the map as pickups. Respawning will remove any unused Score Streak. Team Deathmatch Like Deathmatch but with teams, the first team to reach the required amount of kills wins. Team Hotspot Like Hotspot but with teams, a single point that changes positions and needs to be held to gain points. First team to reach the required amount of points wins. Team Flag Control Like the free for all version but with teams where a flag spawns randomly on the map and you must get close to pick it up. Once picked up hold on to it to score points. If you die you will drop the flag for others to pick up and after 15 seconds will get reset to a random position. Kill Confirmed A team mode where killing a player does not immediately reward your team with a point. Instead, when killing a player it will drop a sphere to be collected, collect green spheres to "Confirm Kill" and gain a point for your team, collect a red sphere to "Deny Kill" and prevent the enemy team from gaining a point. Domination A team mode where each team must capture several areas on the map while at the same time prevent the enemy team from capturing the areas. The more areas your team holds the more points your team gains, first team to reach the required amount of points wins. Perks Score Streaks

Hello everyone, This code below used to work back in the days (I'm about two years without login in, so perhaps some things have changed?): waitUntil {!isNull player && alive player && {vehicle player != player}}; while {alive player} do { waitUntil {vehicle player != player}; vehicle player addEventHandler ["IncomingMissile", { params ["_target", "_ammo", "_vehicle"]; [_target, "smokeLauncher"] call BIS_fnc_fire; private _newTarget = createVehicle [["laserTargetW","laserTargetE"] select (side _target getFriend WEST < 0.6),getpos _target vectorAdd [0,0,5],[],0,"can_collide"]; private _missile = (getpos _vehicle nearestObject _ammo); [_target, [0,0,0]] remoteExec ["setVehicleTIPars",0]; _missile setMissileTarget _newTarget; [_missile,_target,_newTarget] spawn { params ["_missile","_target","_newTarget"]; while {!isNull _missile && alive _target} do { if (_missile distance _target < 150) then {deleteVehicle _missile}; }; deleteVehicle _newTarget; }; [_target, "CMFlareLauncher"] remoteExec ["BIS_fnc_fire", 0]; _missile setMissileTarget _newTarget; }]; waitUntil {vehicle player == player}; vehicle player removeEventHandler ["IncomingMissile", 0]; }; When I used it single player it still works though. But when in MP server with my friends, the server crashes when he hosts, when I'm hosting, it doesn't work but it also doesn't crash. In single player mode, it works just fine. How can I make it so it would work in MP? Thanks in advnace.

Hello, I am trying to get a simple hostage script to work on a dedicated multiplayer server, but it does not seem to work properly. I can see the "Free Hostage" option on the "hostage" AI, but the AI does not do anything after I select the option. While testing in the editor, the hostage is able to go to his next waypoint, but on the dedicated server, he is still stuck in place as if the script did not execute. The code I have to setup the hostage in "hostageSetup.sqf": hostage disableAI "move"; hostage setcaptive true; removeallweapons hostage; removebackpack hostage; removeGoggles hostage; removeHeadgear hostage; hostage unassignitem "nvgoggles"; hostage removeitem "nvgoggles"; removeVest hostage; hostage setunitpos "middle"; The code in "hostageAction.sqf": hostage setcaptive false; hostage setunitpos "auto"; hostage enableAI "Move"; And then finally the code in "init.sqf": execVM "hostageSetup.sqf"; hostage addaction ["Free Hostage",{ execVM "hostageAction.sqf" },nil,6,true,true,"","true",2,false,"",""]; Is there something I should add?

Hello folks, i have a very stupid problem and maybe I am missing something here: Is there an option to not show the statistics screen when a Player logs out of a Multiplayer match? I know I can hide the Score Table but I want the other screen to be deactivated as well. Any hint would be great.

Hi Folks. My goal is set in my mp training scenario a kind of randomized CQB "killhouse" generator, and I was lucky to find between my old files a scenario folder that have it. It works perfectly in SP but in MP have a problem, and is when my buddys join in scenario walls and targets are not synchronized between the server and the players. I must clarify that I don't know anything about scripting. I understand that the function of the script is to hide the walls and targets randomly to give a dynamic impression to the killhouse. It works with ACE mod menu. Below I leave the details: In a transfer switch init (Land_TransferSwitch_01_F) named "training_tools": _killhousecategory = ["KILLHOUSE", "KILLHOUSE", "", {}, {true}] call ace_interact_menu_fnc_createAction; _targetcategory = ["TARGETS", "TARGETS", "", {}, {true}] call ace_interact_menu_fnc_createAction; _rankillhouse = ["KILLHOUSE_RAN", "RANDOMIZE", "", { private["_w", "_walls"]; _walls = []; _w = 0; for "_count" from 0 to 45 do { _w = _w + 1; _walls set [_count, format["w%1", _w]]; if (_w == 45) then { _w = 0; { targetObj = missionNamespace getVariable [_x, objNull]; targetObj hideObject false; targetObj setDamage 0; } forEach _walls; for "_count2" from 0 to 45 do { ranval = selectRandom _walls; target = missionNamespace getVariable [ranval, objNull]; target hideObject true; }; }; }; }, {true}] call ace_interact_menu_fnc_createAction; _rantargets = ["OPFOR", "[TAR] OPFOR", "", { private["_t", "_targets"]; _targets = []; _t = 0; for "_count" from 0 to 51 do { _t = _t + 1; _targets set [_count, format["t%1", _t]]; if (_t == 51) then { _t = 0; { targetObj = missionNamespace getVariable [_x, objNull]; targetObj hideObject false; targetObj setDamage 0.8; } forEach _targets; for "_count2" from 0 to 51 do { ranval = selectRandom _targets; target = missionNamespace getVariable [ranval, objNull]; target hideObject true; }; }; }; }, {true}] call ace_interact_menu_fnc_createAction; _ranciv = ["CIV", "[TAR] CIV", "", { private["_civ", "_civilians"]; _civilians = []; _civ = 0; for "_count" from 0 to 33 do { _civ = _civ + 1; _civilians set [_count, format["civ%1", _civ]]; if (_civ == 33) then { _civ = 0; { targetObj = missionNamespace getVariable [_x, objNull]; targetObj hideObject false; targetObj setDamage 0.99; } forEach _civilians; for "_count2" from 0 to 43 do { ranval = selectRandom _civilians; target = missionNamespace getVariable [ranval, objNull]; target hideObject true; }; }; }; }, {true}] call ace_interact_menu_fnc_createAction; _cleartargets = ["CLEAR", "[TAR] CLEAR", "", { private["_num", "_targets", "_civilians"]; _targets = []; _civilians = []; _num = 0; for "_count" from 0 to 51 do { _num = _num + 1; _targets set [_count, format["t%1", _num]]; _civilians set [_count, format["civ%1", _num]]; }; { targetObj = missionNamespace getVariable [_x, objNull]; targetObj hideObject true; } forEach _targets; { targetObj = missionNamespace getVariable [_x, objNull]; targetObj hideObject true; } forEach _civilians; }, {true}] call ace_interact_menu_fnc_createAction; [training_tools, 0, ["ACE_MainActions"], _targetcategory] call ace_interact_menu_fnc_addActionToObject; [training_tools, 0, ["ACE_MainActions"], _killhousecategory] call ace_interact_menu_fnc_addActionToObject; [training_tools, 0, ["ACE_MainActions", "KILLHOUSE"], _rankillhouse] call ace_interact_menu_fnc_addActionToObject; [training_tools, 0, ["ACE_MainActions", "TARGETS"], _cleartargets] call ace_interact_menu_fnc_addActionToObject; [training_tools, 0, ["ACE_MainActions", "TARGETS"], _rantargets] call ace_interact_menu_fnc_addActionToObject; [training_tools, 0, ["ACE_MainActions", "TARGETS"], _ranciv] call ace_interact_menu_fnc_addActionToObject; There are a total of 45 internal walls named consecutively (w1, w2,......w45).

Hello there! I've recently set up a dedicated server to play Reforger with my group in a private setting. The server runs and seemingly operates as it should, (no unusual errors in server logs) and everyone can connect and play on the server without issues, except for myself. When I set "gameHostRegisterBindAddress" to my public IP, it prevents me from not only connecting to my server, but seeing any other Reforger servers available in the server browser. Leaving this form blank, (defaulting to 0.0.0.0) allows me to connect and play no issues, but for everyone else trying to connect, the server displays a ping of 999+ and rejects their connections. I wouldn't consider myself an expert of hosting/managing servers, especially dedicated ones like this, but am I missing something to enable connections both locally and externally, or is this just not possible with Reforger's current state? If anyone has any recommendations, I would be grateful for any and all of them! If I can provide any additional information which could help solve my issue, I would be happy to provide it! Reforger is a fantastic platform so far and I'm just really excited to play the next generation of Arma as soon as possible :P

Hi! We have a semi-Public Antistasi Server and some of the people think, shooting through the bottom of an APC or Tank is fun to capture it. We have rules but there isn't everytime someone around to check if they "legally" obtained it or not. I also searched for some scripts or mods that help with this problem but I couldn't find a single one that would prevent this (how is that not a problem someone already fixed?) I now wanted to create a serverside mod that adds an EventHandler to all players, because I can't edit the mission itself (and don't want to because of updates etc). My initial code looks like this: _firedHandler = { _player = _x; _position = eyePos _player; _positionAbove = _position + [0, 0, 1]; _objects = lineIntersectsWith [_position, _positionAbove]; { if ((_x isKindOf "APC" || _x isKindOf "Tank")) then { _player setPos (_position + [1, 0, 0]); }; } forEach _objects; }; if(isPlayer _x) then {_x addEventHandler ["Fired", _firedHandler];} forEach allPlayers; but I can't figure out how this can work on a dedicated server. I have almost zero knowledge in coding and just googled the most of it and used the wiki. Other solutions or directions how this could be archived are welcome It would be very helpful if someone could help me out. I can't understand how to make this work :(

Hello, Consider this key in the stringtable : <Key ID="STR_CID_FREE_CITY_TASK_DESCRIPTION"> <English>Clear %1 of ennemies</English> <!-- more languages --> </Key> Using a local context, I can easily do : private _localizedDescription = format [ localize "STR_CID_FREE_CITY_TASK_DESCRIPTION", _cityName ]; However, I'm wondering if it's possible to use such strings with BIS_fnc_taskCreate I could do [ _side, _taskID, [ format [ localize "STR_CID_FREE_CITY_TASK_DESCRIPTION", _cityName ], "some title", // could be localized too "" ] ] call BIS_fnc_taskCreate; But this will be evaluated server-side and the clients may receive strings in a language that doesn't match theirs I could remotely send the tasks creation on each clients with [ [ _side, _taskID, _cityName ], { [ /* same parameters than previous code */ ] call BIS_fnc_taskCreate; } ] remoteExec [ "spawn", 0, true ]; This may work, but will require extra work to sync the tasks between the clients and the server, update the JIP queue when a task has changed and probably more stuff And in my opinion, this will goes against the purpose of using the Task Framework, which already handle all of this and can send static localized strings to clients So far, the only clean solution I found was changing the description to a generic "Clear the zone of ennemies" and as title the _cityName. This is acceptable, but I was wondering if using formatted localized strings was possible using the Task Framework Thanks

I have recorded a unitplay on a car, the car is driven by an IA and the AI (variable name = pilot) will drive the players around. I do know that engineOn only works "where the unit is local" (I'm still a little bit confused about what this means exactly). The engineOn command does work but the engine stops itself after a while, i have tried this: if (local vehicle pilot) then {dummycar engineon true;}; to no avail. How would you go about it? On a side note: how would you go about to have the car's wheels rolling when playing the unitplay (they are still at the moment). I have tested the above mentioned both on my team's server and on my computer.

Greetings all! Long time lurker first time poster. I am currently working on an MP mission in Prairie Fire and I am trying to accomplish having each of my 3 groups (All BLUFOR) have separate tasks that they have to accomplish throughout the mission. I tried at first to do it with the modules but as you can imagine the triggers where not firing correctly (Probably my fault) and the insane amount of sync lines in the mission made me want to move to a script based solution. Which is where I am currently stuck and would love to have some guidance. Here is my current setup. 3 groups (All BLUFOR) Group names = RT, CV, and SR (Have not even bothered with SR because I can't get the first two to work correctly) initServer.sqf if (isServer) then { [RT, "RTbrief", ["Chief SOG has mission brief for RT Alabama.", "Go to the OPS brief", ""], chief, "ASSIGNED", 99, true, "whiteboard", true] call BIS_fnc_taskCreate; [CV, "CvyBrief", ["Chief SOG needs you at the OPS brief with RT Alabama.", "Go to the OPS brief", ""], chief, "ASSIGNED", 99, true, "whiteboard", true] call BIS_fnc_taskCreate; }; RT1 trigger "RtTasks\RT1-brief.sqf" remoteExec ["BIS_fnc_execVM","RT",true]; RT1-brief.sqf ["RTbrief", "succeeded"] call BIS_fnc_taskSetState, sleep 3; [RT, "S4", ["Go see the Quatermaster at S4 to draw weapons and gear for your mission.", "Draw weapons and gear", ""], [9418.15,6592.3,2.84225], "ASSIGNED", 98, true, "RIFLE", true] call BIS_fnc_taskCreate; CVY1 Trigger "CvyTasks\CVY1-brief.sqf" remoteExec ["BIS_fnc_execVM","cv",true]; CVY1-brief.sqf ["Cvybrief", "succeeded"] call BIS_fnc_taskSetState, sleep 3; [CV, "GetInAC", ["Head to the airfield and get in the AC-119K", "Get in AC-119K", ""], [9629.8,6631.44,6.89819], "ASSIGNED", 98, true, "GETIN", true] call BIS_fnc_taskCreate; I originally had this setup in the triggers but thought the problem had something to do with the use of "execvm" and tried the code in the blocks above. if (isServer) then { [[], "CvyTasks\CVY1-brief.sqf"] remoteExec ["execvm", 2]; }; Okay so as you can tell I have been calling an SQF file for each of the tasks so they fired in sequence instead of being able to see all the tasks from the start of the mission (There is probably a much better way to do this😅). Task(initServer)>Trigger call>run SQF. One for each task (RT has 9 tasks, CV has 5 tasks, and SR has 6). I'm sure there is a much more eloquent/efficient/better way to write this script and would love to see it. This solution worked fine in the editor but once I put the mission on my dedicated server the first person to hit their groups respective trigger would disable the other groups trigger (If RT hit their trigger and then CV tried to hit theirs it would not fire or vice versa). There was a time period where it would just assign the group who hit their trigger first task to the other group but that seems to have stopped happening. As you can tell I am super new to scripting and failing to grasp using these functions properly let alone how this needs to be done to support MP play. Let me know if you need more details. I am very grateful for any advice/help you can provide me and I am eager to learn. Thanks in advance!

Hello guys. I've got a COOP mission for you to try out! Originally I released this mission last summer 2023, but it turned out to have lots of script errors. Yeah, this was my first true experience of creating a scripted scenario for multiplayer. Fortunately I learned a thing or two and managed to put this project into a working condition. Feel free to try out with your friends: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2983422293 Now hear this, testing a mission from start to finish constantly is tiring as hell, but I managed to beat this with my friends anyway. It had some errors that I have now fixed. If you encounter any problems, please let me know and I'll look to them as soon as possible. Enjoy.

when i try to load a saved game inside my server it loads a mission i no longer have saved. I've tried deleting all my saved games and starting from scratch but it will still load the same thing.

Hey all, I'm relatively new to Arma 3 scripting and have run into an issue. I recently figured out that I could activate triggers synced to show/hide modules with a variable set with an add-action, essentially allowing me to control entire swaths of triggers with a button press, something I have found to be far more reliable than triggers activated by the physical presence of a unit. What I have is a set of triggers that simply have the variable and a semi-colon: StageOneActivated; And then with an add-action added with an init.sqf, I have: Controller addAction [ "Begin Phase One", {StageOneActivated = true; Controller removeAction (_this select 2); }]; Which sets the StageOneActivated to true which activates the trigger and removes the now-useless addaction from the list. Both locally and testing in local multiplayer via LAN this works flawlessly, but on the server the triggers simply don't respond. I know the init.sqf is working because the addAction's are present. And I know the addAction is working because it's removing the addaction after use. This implies the variables are whats not working correctly. I went into my init.sqf and decided to call the variables on mission start and set them, so I have the line: StageOneActivated = False; This has made no impact, neither in the locally tested version which still works, nor on the server which still fails. I've read through the documentation on global variables and I think this is probably what I need to do: to call the variables globally in the MP mission but I am struggling with the syntax. Do I just add publicVariable "StageOneActivated"; to the init.sqf after the line where I set the variable state as StageOneActivated = false; or do I need to call the public variable in the add-action as well? or is there another way to name and set these variables that I am missing entirely? Any help is appreciated. I want to start using variables more to really add some oomph into my missions and this is something that is going to come up a LOT.

so lately me and a couple mates have been playing a fun campaign that i was just hosting manually, now i ended up building and using my own server to host a dedicated server so they can play when i'm not around, the first day we had it running we were all able to connect and play no harm no foul, now the next day the server decided it wanted to only show up for my friends and not me, and its confusing me as i cannot seem to find where its disappeared to. ports are fine as my friends can see it and connect. i have sat and waited about 15 minutes to see if it appeared but nothing, it doesn't show up in lan either which it shouldn't as my server isn't connected to my home network. the firewall for the server is disabled at this stage to allow the traffic. but still i cannot see where it is.

I'm part of a UKSF unit leading Induction and Recruitment while also helping with training. We're strictly 18+ so very mature group of people from all over the world. Our average age would currently be 24+ At present we have 30+ members, and that number is growing, so we all get to know each other very well. As a unit we have been operating for 4 years now and we are not stopping any time soon, so all very seasoned Arma 3 veterans. At present we are exclusive to Arma 3, no plans to move to Reforger. We are ambitious though, so we plan on transitioning to Arma 4 when that becomes available. We focus on mil-sim realism and team play with a huge emphasis on the team play and coordination. We have training at 1900hrs BST every Wednesday, with optional workshops throughout the week. And operations at 1900hrs BST every Sunday During the downtime we have a lot of other events for other games going on throughout the week. such as DayZ, HOI4 and much more. Current mods include the best that comes to Arma 3 such as: RHS, CUP, ACE, KAT Medical, 3CB and much more, with all mods being optimized for our equipment available to us at any given operation and training session. If this is something you may be interested in, you can find more details on our website, plus a join link for our discord if you wish to join us. Our Website!

We serious need a rework in the respawn system of the antennas. Its insane how 5 seconds after you kill a enemy while raiding a enemy base, he spawns again behind you, the same person you just killed and kill you. Theres no how you cap any major enemy base with less than 4 people playing together, i really apreciate teamwork but not every match we jump in aways has communicative teammates that are necessary to cap the bases.

Hi, I can't host any game with my friends on arma reforger. In the host menu in multiplayer I can host but if they try to join : "Kick cause code: group=1 'REPLICATION', reason=3 'CONNECTION_FAILURE'
