Antistasi plus not saving
As I said in my previous post I played this mod and was able to save just fine and then my pc crashed and now it won't save. I can start it up play it save it but the save doesnt actually save when I close the server. I have already tried repairing the file deleted the mod and reinstalled it deleted the files of arma and uninstalled and reinstalled. Nothing seems to be working any help or point me in a direction to someone who can.

The server doesn't do a save when you shut it down. You have to do a persistent save at the mapboard object (or where ever Plus moved it to from where it was in the menu in the Community version) or rely on the autosave interval.

If that does not work then the profile used (your profile in your game 'Documents/Arma 3' or 'Documents/Arma 3 - Other Profiles' or the profile used by a dedicated server) might be corrupt. If you don't backup and delete the (profilename).vars.arma3profile file then nothing is going to change about it. That is where the save is held.

The vars.arma3profile file contains data for other mods and scenarios too, so if you delete it you may loose more than just your Antistasi save. But if it is corrupt, that may be unrecoverable too.

From what I played you have to set when it saves. It doesn't do it automatically.

Maybe Plus changed that. Antistasi community saves at a regular interval. Used to be 1 hour. Might be shorter since recent versions.

If you are hosting it on a linux server you will have to restart the server each persistent save you did. That way it will load your last save.

Oh yeah, I heard Arma 3 has a bug in it that prevents Antistasi Plus and Ultimate from using the user namespace method to store the progress securely into the profilename.vars.arma3profile file. Community somehow doesn't suffer from that.
