Bug or Feature – ArmA: Armed Assault

Bug of Feature?

Introduction

At times it might not be quite clear whether certain features or behaviors are bugs, planned features, engine limitations, or just false expectations due to confusing documentation.

For those cases, this list has been created.

If you come across features where one of the above criteria might apply, put it here first, and then, once it has been determined to be a true bug, it will then be moved to the official bug list.

Please do not use this list to file obvious bugs or feature requests!
