Description:
A fully working, open-source Virtual Machine for the scripting language of the ArmA Games.

How to use this thing?
To start using the SQF-VM, you just have to double click the executable.

Are there command line parameters available to eg. use this for unit-testing?
Yes, there are. To get all, start the tool via command line and the parameter -?

What is supported?
To see what is supported in the specific build you are using, use the non-sqf compliant help command.
The output of that command for version Alpha 0.1.0

I entered SQF with invalid syntax and the VM is outputting gibberish
The SQF-VM project is not aiming to do any actual syntax checking.
The tool expects valid SQF as input and invalid syntax might result in invalid execution stacks.

I found a bug, what shall i do now?
First of all: if it is due to invalid syntax not getting reported correctly, nothing.
After that: Ensure all commands used are actually supported in your SQF-VM version using the help command
If it is not caused due to invalid syntax or a missing command in the SQF-VM, try to narrow down the problem as much as you can and then head over to the github issues section to report the bug.
The only exception to the above is a crash! Crashes you always can report

I got a question that is not answered in here, what to do?
Ask your question in this thread or in the discord channel and i might add it to this list
