ALiVE Data
ALiVE Data
ALiVE captures data about the state of the current session for all AI units, players and the tactical situation. There are two main uses for the Data module. Firstly, it provides a link to the online War Room where mission data is published for review, including statistics, server monitoring and post-mission replays. Secondly, the module enables multi-session persistence by storing mission data on the local machine or via an easy-to-use cloud service.
ALiVE Data works on both Windows and Linux servers. There are optional pbo's included for server admins to autostart data in all missions, even if the data module is not placed.
- ALiVE Data The ALiVE data module enables mission data and player stats to be recorded on the War Room at www.alivemod.com
- Persistence See here for how to set up mission persistence for multi-session operations between rejoins and server restarts.
- War Room ALIVEmod.com War Room is a free online service for reviewing mission statistics on customised Clan or Group pages.
Dedicated Servers
ALiVE was built to run on a dedicated server but will work just as well in single player. However, hosted multiplayer can sometimes cause unexpected results so we recommend setting up a "local dedicated server" instead. We have provided some guidance for setting up local dedicated servers here.
Local Databases
It is possible to set up a local CouchDB for persistence but we cannot provide support for it. A guide is available on our github pages. The War Room is a free of charge Software as a Service for the ArmA community and our limited resources are dedicated to ensuring this is maintained and supported, so it remains our recommended approach.
