ArmAtechSquad Dedicated Server Tool
Introduction
This is a tool to help you manage your Armed Assault Server.
I created this as I thought it might help some people to contribute some of there servers for the Armed Assault Community.
What can it Do
ArmA Control Options

- Start Single Player - Start ArmA.exe in single player mode. (Note: See Single Player window for Direct Play options)
- Close ArmA - Kill the ArmA_Server.exe.
- Close Server - Kill the ArmA.exe.
