Hello elemenopyunome.
Can you please upload your server config and mission files?
Regards,
Geez

Hi @Geez the information contained in these files is proprietary information for our server specifically. Do you have a more secure method of file transport other than public plain text internet on this forum?

I have removed my PII and our servers private information from this. This is the server config + mission files + serverconsole.log (redacted of passwords and IP addresses)
