Faguss: Splitting from "Arma_2:_Server_Config_File" because the latter is not useful for OFP players

Splitting from "Arma_2:_Server_Config_File" because the latter is not useful for OFP players

New page

This article deals with the '''server.cfg''', a configuration file which you can use to configure various game server settings such as password, how many votes are needed, welcome messages, etc.

The name ''server.cfg'' is only a standard as the file can be called anything. The real name is determined by the {{hl|[[:Category:Startup Parameters|-config]]}} command line option when launching the dedicated server. There is no default name - when no filename is specified, no server configuration file is loaded.

=== Mission rotation ===

Server can automatically select mission from a list if there is at least one player connected. Once the mission is done and if there are still players on the server, it will automatically switch to the next one in the cycle.

The list is created by adding "class Missions" to the configuration. Each child class defines a mission. Their properties are as follows:

{| class="wikitable sortable"
! | Parameter !! Description
|-
| {{hl|c= template}} || Mission file name (without .PBO extension) from the MPMissions folder.
|-
| {{hl|c= cadetMode}} || Difficulty mode: 0 for Veteran or 1 for Cadet.
|-
| {{hl|c= param1}} || Default value for the mission's first parameter (defined in mission's description.ext)
|-
| {{hl|c= param2}} || Default value for the mission's second parameter (defined in mission's description.ext)
|}

=== Example Configuration File ===

<syntaxhighlight lang="cpp">
// Example server.cfg file.
// Single-line comments begin with two forward slashes
/* Multi line comments begin with forward slash and asterisk
and end with asterisk and a slash */

hostname = "Fun and Test Server";
password = "123";
passwordAdmin = "abc";
reportingIP = "master.ofpisnotdead.com";

checkFiles[] = {
"addons\Bizon.pbo",
"bin\Config.bin",
"Abox\stringtable.csv" // file inside pbo
};
