How to Add Missions to Your Arma 3 Server

Missions are the heart of Arma 3 gameplay. This guide covers how to upload mission files and configure them in your server's mission rotation.

Step 1: Upload Mission Files

Mission files have the .pbo extension and must be placed in the /mpmissions folder on your server.

1. Navigate to the Wabbanode Control Panel and click Files.
2. Navigate to the /mpmissions folder.
3. Upload your .pbo mission file(s).

Step 2: Configure Mission Rotation

1. Click the Settings tab and select Arma 3 Server.cfg.
2. Locate the class Missions section and add your missions to the configuration.
3. Click Save and Start your server.

Mission Configuration

Single Mission

class Missions {
    class Mission1 {
        template = "MissionName.MapName";
        difficulty = "regular";
    };
};

Multiple Missions (Rotation)

class Missions {
    class Mission1 {
        template = "coop_mission.Altis";
        difficulty = "regular";
    };
    class Mission2 {
        template = "pvp_mission.Stratis";
        difficulty = "veteran";
    };
    class Mission3 {
        template = "training_mission.VR";
        difficulty = "recruit";
    };
};

Understanding Mission Names

The mission template follows this format: MissionName.MapName

Common Map Names

Example

If your mission file is BMR_Insurgency_v1_44.Altis.pbo, your configuration would be:

class Missions {
    class Mission1 {
        template = "BMR_Insurgency_v1_44.Altis";
        difficulty = "regular";
    };
};

Difficulty Options

Tips

• Don't include the .pbo extension in the template name
• Missions cycle automatically when one ends (if multiple defined)
• Test missions locally before adding to the server
• Some missions require specific mods to function
