Arma 3: Server Config File
The server configuration file can be used to configure various game server settings such as the difficulty level, how many votes are needed and welcome messages.
The name of the file is determined by the <tt>[[-config]]</tt> command line option when launching the dedicated server. There is no default name - when you do not specify the filename, no server configuration file is loaded.

== Server Administration ==
If you are not using BattlEye RCon, there could only be 1 server admin at any given time. There are two ways of becoming admin, through a vote or through login with authenticated credentials.
=== Voted In Admin ===
It is possible to become a server administrator through player voting process. Such admin has less abilities than logged in admin.<br>
For example, voted in admin would be able to kick a player, but only logged in admin would be able to ban a player.<br>
For more information on voting and voting configuration see page [[Arma_3:_Mission_voting|'''Server Voting''']].
=== Logged In Admin ===
To log in as admin, one is required to type in<tt>#login</tt> command followed by server password, which matches password defined in '''passwordAdmin''' param.<br>
Since Arma2OA it is possible to add one or several user ids [[getPlayerUID|UIDs]] into '''admins[]''' server config parameter, which would allow listed users to log in as admin by simply typing <tt>#login</tt> without a password.<br>
This presents several advantages for managing the servers. The server owner can have multiple admins selected from the community and doesn't have to provide each one with server admin password.<br>
The adding and removing of UIDs is done on the server side which makes it easy to add and to remove admins if necessary. On the server, admins are handled on first come first served basis.<br>
Here are the rules:<br>
* If there is already a logged in admin on the server, the new admin will not be able to log in until previously logged in admin logs out
* If there is a voted in admin on the server, the logged in admin will override voted in admin and take admin role
* There is no difference between logged in admin that used admin password or logged in admin that was whitelisted with '''admins[]''' param
<br>
The logged in and voted in admins have different set of '''[[Multiplayer Server Commands]]''' available to them. See '''[[serverCommandAvailable]]''' for more information.
=== Server Security ===
Please check following link for security settings: '''[[Arma_3:_Server_Security]]'''

=== Mission rotation ===
One can set an automatic mission rotation. Without an admin, the server will automatically select a mission when at least one player is connected. Once the mission is done and if there are still players on the server, it will automatically switch to the next in the cycle.
Example:<br>
{{Feature | Informative | When difficulty is set to <tt>difficulty {{=}} "Custom";</tt> the server will look into <tt>USERNAME.Arma3Profile</tt> file for the definition of custom difficulty, which should look like this: [[server.armaprofile#Server_Difficulty_Example | click to see example]]}}

Also the difficulty of the each mission can be overridden

==== Additional details ====
For hosting server behind NAT or firewall, please ensure gameport and STEAMports are forwarded and open!<br>
Set the ICMP "echo reply" as allowed so the server is able return ping delay properly.<br>
It's recommended to enable the NAT traversal (so called "Edge traversal" in Windows Firewall) for '''arma3server.exe''', '''arma3.exe''' to better support clients/servers behind NAT.
==== Overriding mission params ====
On dedicated server unless you are an admin you cannot set mission options provided by mission maker via class Params. However as a server owner you can override default setting with your own. See [[Mission Parameters]] for more info

As with any good public forum, rules and guidelines help maintain order and sanity among readers and editors. The following rules and guidelines are designed so that people will return here to contribute and find quality information. Respecting these rules will help in providing a positive experience for both editors and readers alike.
= Rules of Conduct =
The '''Rules of Conduct''' regulate the interaction between Wiki members. These are in place to ensure that the Wiki remains a civilised place where people can share information freely, without being harassed or abused.
; No Flaming / Flame-baiting
: Abusive comments, personal attacks and name calling are not allowed.
; No bigotry
: Racist, sexist, homophobic or any other type of bigoted posts are not tolerated on this Wiki. Such offences will result in an immediate and permanent block.
: No discussion about illegally obtained software
=== Follow the instructions of the Wiki Admins ===
When a [[Bohemia_Interactive_Community:Administrators|Wiki Sysop]] asks you to stop doing something, please follow their instructions.
=== No Spam ===
We define spam as an article or post that has no real worth, is irrelevant, useless and offers nothing to a discussion. Spam is not limited to text - posting an image as a means of spamming, or as a link to a spam site, will also result in deletion. With spam being hard to define, that decision is left to the moderators' discretion. If in doubt ask yourself "does my reply add any constructive insight to the discussion"? If not, then this Wiki would not be the right place to post your comment.
=== Images ===
No posting of pictures containing porn, real killings, mutilations, wounds, carnage and other disgusting/explicit images. This also includes links to pages that contain such images. The only accepted images for this Wiki must be related to a product of Bohemia Interactive. Keep the following guidelines in mind when uploading and posting pictures here:
* Do not use hotlinked images in the Wiki. Use the [[Special:Upload|Upload file]] function instead to upload images to this Wiki.
* Name the image correctly <tt>gameShort_what_does_it_do.jpg</tt>
** <tt>A3_Briefing_Image.jpg</tt>
** <tt>OFP_Helicopter_Attacking.jpg</tt>
* When appropriate use an image thumbnail on the article page (such as on the [[Operation Flashpoint: Easter Eggs|{{ofp}}: Easter Eggs]] page).
* Avoid using a text link to point to an image. Display the image as thumbnail or sized appropriately for the article.
= Discussion Pages =
Discussion pages are now only used for keeping information for historic reasons. For discussions please join the '''Arma Discord server'''.
= Mod Pages =
{{Feature|important|I'd prefer not to have any community content on this biki (only exception being mikero tools and stuff from the past) [[User:R3vo|R3vo]] ([[User talk:R3vo|talk]]) 16:21, 7 January 2021 (CET)}}
You are welcome to announce your mods on this Wiki under the respective categories ([[:Category:Operation Flashpoint: Community Mod Pages|OFP]] or [[:Category:ArmA: Addon Groups|ArmA]]), but these should be limited to an ''overview'' of your mod, rather than a full-scale documentation.<br>
Each modder (or mod group) is allowed to have a one page description, with up to 8 images embedded. If images for this page are uploaded to this Wiki, their individual size should not exceed 100KB. (Images that are hosted elsewhere, and only linked to, do not fall under this limitation.)
= Writing an Article =
* Post only proven facts
* If unsure about whether something is correct or not, ask others on the Arma Discord server or mark the content so others can see that it might not be fully correct
* Do not use abbreviations such as it's, doesn't, aren't ...
* Try to avoid posting external links whenever possible. They might become outdated or content on external pages might change.
* Use simple English, remember, not everyone is a native speaker
* Avoid ALL CAPS, see [[Bohemia_Interactive_Community:Formatting#Text_formatting_markup|text formatting]] to find out how to properly highlight parts of a text
* Use the preview button before submitting changes
* Let others proof-read your creation before posting
= Formating Guidelines =
These guidelines are here to ensure that articles are presented in a clear, understandable and consistent style.
=== Avoid empty lines ===
* No empty lines underneath sections
<noWiki>
=== Avoid empty lines ===
Here starts the text </noWiki>
=== Categorise your Article ===
Categories help to properly sort the content on this biki.
* Keep the categories to a minimum. Only add the categories which are most relevant and avoid duplication.
=== No Introduction ===
* Do not create an '''Introduction''' section. The text the page starts with is considered the introduction already.
=== Summarise your Changes ===
* When making only small edits check the "This is a minor edit" box at the bottom.
{{Feature|informative|By default all edits are markes as "major". This can be changed to "minor" in your preferences setting.}}
* Add a short summary of what you changed e.g., ''Fixed typo'', ''Removed category''
=== Use Full Names for Titles ===
{{Feature|important|Make use of name templates and GameCategory [[User:R3vo|R3vo]] ([[User talk:R3vo|talk]]) 16:21, 7 January 2021 (CET)}}
When creating new categories or articles, consider the naming convention you are going to use.
<nowiki>[[Operation Flashpoint: Elite]] is more acceptable than [[OFP:Elite]]. The new category or article should almost always be [[Game Title: something]] such as [[Operation Flashpoint: Addons]].</nowiki>
<nowiki>Your choice should always be clear and concise for the reader, and easy for the editor to link back to. Keep in mind that you can use spaces in the name of the article (e.g. [[Armed Assault: Easter Eggs]] would be better than [[Armed Assault:EasterEggs]])</nowiki>
Refer to the [[Naming Conventions]] page for choosing the appropriate name when writing articles.
= Deletion Guidelines =
* Mark pages for deletion first with <noWiki>{{Wiki|delete}}</noWiki> if in doubt
* Pages containing text with no meaning, test pages or similar can be deleted if they are not being used frequently
* Pages marked for deletion with <nowiki>{{Wiki|delete}}</nowiki>
* Information about non-BI games
* Any content that is violating the copyright holder's rights or any other EULA
