CBA Settings

CBA Settings

All settings are under the A3SQL category in CBA Settings (in-game → Options → Addon Options).

Setting	Type	Default	Description
a3sql_listener_enabled	CHECKBOX	true	Start TCP listener at game boot for external queries
a3sql_listener_port	EDIT	33306	TCP port for external query listener
a3sql_listener_bind	EDIT	127.0.0.1	IP to bind to: 127.0.0.1 (localhost) or 0.0.0.0 (network)
a3sql_listener_user	EDIT	(empty)	Username required for TCP login. Empty = anonymous access
a3sql_listener_password	EDIT	(empty)	Password required for TCP login. Empty = anonymous access
a3sql_auto_save	CHECKBOX	false	Auto-save database to file when mission ends
a3sql_auto_load	CHECKBOX	false	Restore database from file when mission starts
a3sql_auto_save_path	EDIT	a3sql_autosave.bin	File path relative to Arma 3 directory, or absolute path
a3sql_log_level	LIST	INFO (2)	Verbosity: ERROR(0), WARN(1), INFO(2), DEBUG(3)

Auto-start behavior: When a3sql_listener_enabled is true, the TCP listener starts at game boot (main menu) — no mission required. Credentials are applied before the listener starts.

Setting from SQF

Override settings in a mission's init.sqf or description.ext:

// In init.sqf
["a3sql_listener_port", 33307] call CBA_fnc_setVar;
["a3sql_listener_enabled", true] call CBA_fnc_setVar;
["a3sql_auto_save", true] call CBA_fnc_setVar;
["a3sql_auto_save_path", "my_mission_stats.bin"] call CBA_fnc_setVar;
