A dedicated Arma 3 Exile server on Tanoa, and every piece of software that keeps it alive.
This wiki is the operator's manual. The site is the shop window; the hub repo is the map.

arma3server.exe (32-bit — this is not optional) loads Exile 1.0.4a and the
Exile.Tanoa mission, talks to MariaDB through extDB2 v71, and is policed by
BattlEye and infiSTAR. XCSV GUARD, a Rust console, supervises all of it:
it refuses to start the server if any PBO fails an integrity check, speaks
BattlEye RCon over UDP, watches log growth, performs a crash autopsy, and brings
the whole stack up or down with one button. Our own content lives in
XCSV_ADDONS and never contains a line of Exile source.
- 32-bit server binary. extDB2 has no x64 build and never did.
-
-filePatchingon. Without it A3XAI ends the mission during world init. -
No Exile source in our repositories. Override via
CfgExileCustomCode. - Nothing the players type ever reaches the language model. The model reads logs, holds no tools, and takes no actions.
- No secrets in git. Credentials sit in gitignored config, DPAPI-protected.
