Forge Server Extension
Forge Server is an arma-rs extension for Arma 3 server-side persistence and domain services. It exposes game-facing commands and stores durable state in SurrealDB.
Architecture
SQF modules call forge_server through fnc_extCall. Small requests use the
direct callExtension path, while large payloads are staged through the
transport layer.
SQF module
-> extension bridge
-> domain command
-> service layer
-> repository
-> SurrealDB
Configuration
Copy config.example.toml to config.toml next to the extension DLL before
launching a Forge-enabled server. SurrealDB must also be running before the
server starts, and the values in config.toml must match that database.

Players and mission designers do not need this file unless they are hosting locally. Server owners and developers do.
