Yup, annoying as hell. I wonder if this is a hack or a bug.

Hacker, not a bug.

Its a hack with those damn scriptkiddies. They need an anti cheat system that bans their IPs of people who have scripts that are running or if they can modify them when ever they want. They need to make the banning so they will never be able to play the game again.

The scripts need to also be sent in for verification through the anti cheat system so the computers or people can check them to see if they are crap like nuking server, changing people into birds, etc. That way only legit scripts that have to deal with the game are allowed to run.

its SCRIPTERS not hackers, unless an anticheat is set to block script injecting during missions, which it probably wont, this will continue. the reason it wont is because it is needed sometimes during missions to change variables.

This seems to happen directly on server start. Maybe it has to do with a beta branch update or something because it's happened in a completely hacker free environment.

This happened to me and a few clan members on a passworded server. It turns out I was running a mod at the time and it was a vanilla server, that might have caused the birds but I'm not 100% sure.

THIS IS NOT A HACK. It is a result of some people running the development client and some not. See here (http://feedback.arma3.com/view.php?id=4141)
