Disable or Limit AI
Learn how to disable AI completely or limit the number of AI characters on your Arma Reforger server.
Arma Reforger scenarios like Conflict include AI soldiers by default. You can either disable AI entirely or set a cap on the number of AI characters.
Disable AI Completely
Open your server config
On XGamingServer, go to Files in your panel and open your server configuration JSON file.
Add disableAI setting
In the operating section, set disableAI to true:
"operating": {
"disableAI": true
}Save and restart
Save the file and restart your server from the Dashboard.
📝 Note: This completely disables all AI functionality on the server. No AI characters will spawn in any scenario.
Limit AI Count
Instead of disabling AI entirely, you can set a maximum number of AI characters:
Open your server config
Go to Files and open your server config JSON.
Set the AI limit
In the operating section, add the aiLimit setting:
"operating": {
"aiLimit": 50
}No system will be able to spawn new AI once this limit is reached. Set to -1 to remove the limit entirely.
Save and restart
Save the file and restart your server.
💡 Tip: You can also set the AI limit via the
-aiLimitstartup parameter, which overrides the config value.
Recommended AI Limits
| Server Size | Suggested AI Limit |
|---|---|
| 16 players | 30–50 |
| 32 players | 50–80 |
| 64 players | 80–100 |
| 128 players | 50–80 (reduce for performance) |
💡 Tip: Reducing AI count can significantly improve server performance, especially on large player-count servers. See the Performance Guide for more tips.
