AFS Server Utilities (ASU)

Server Administration • Player Support • Discord Integration • Security Monitoring

AFS Server Utilities (ASU) is a lightweight, server-focused utility mod for Arma Reforger, designed to improve player support, simplify administration, and provide useful security monitoring tools.

ASU combines chat commands, Discord webhook notifications, configurable anti-spam protection, and GUID-based staff permissions in one package.

Available Commands

Player Commands

#unstuck — Recover your character when stuck. Includes a 60-second cooldown.

#report <message> — Submit a report directly to your staff Discord channel.

#bugreport <message> — Report bugs with player and location information.

#feedback <message> — Send feedback and suggestions to the server team.

Staff Commands

#quickgm <message> — Send a Game Master assistance request.

#quickdev <message> — Send a developer assistance request.

Both commands require GUID authorization through the ASU configuration.

System Command

#asu health — Check ASU system health.

Discord Webhook Integration

ASU supports separate Discord webhook channels for:

Player reports

Bug reports

Player feedback

Game Master requests

Developer requests

Security alerts

Notifications use structured Discord embeds containing relevant player details, faction information, messages, and locations where applicable.

Optional Discord role mentions allow staff to receive notifications for incoming requests.

Anti-Spam Protection

ASU includes a configurable command anti-spam system to prevent repeated command abuse.

Default settings:

3 command uses within 5 minutes

30-minute temporary block after exceeding the limit

Authorized administrators bypass the central anti-spam restrictions

Report and bug-report commands also feature individual cooldowns.

GUID-Based Permissions

Staff access is managed through a server-side GUID authorization list.

Only authorized players can use restricted commands and access supported staff-specific functionality.

Speed Detection

ASU includes server-side movement monitoring to detect potentially suspicious player speeds.

Suspicious activity can be forwarded to a dedicated Discord security webhook for staff review.

Speed detection is alert-only. ASU does not automatically kick or ban players based on these alerts.

Configuration

All major settings are managed through:

$profile:AFS_ServerUtilities/config.json

The configuration is automatically generated when missing and supports:

Staff GUID authorization

Discord webhooks and role mentions

Command anti-spam limits

Report cooldowns

Speed detection settings

Configuration changes require a server restart.

Compatibility

ASU is designed as a standalone utility framework without mandatory dependencies on third-party gameplay mods.

Generates a json file to be configured in your server profile folder.
