Resonance Mods – Logistics
This mod aims to improve the quality of life for logistics players in ArmA, while also taking the load off of mission makers. This mod contains several features, most of which are older scripts I have simply fixed, resigned, edited to my hearts content, or simply included for convinience. These features include: Vehicle Towing, Sling Loading, and box loading functionality. This addon is ACE compatible, but the interactions for loading crates is not yet using ACE interaction. This is because I haven’t been bothered to do it yet. It’s being worked on, and I’ll likley push an update with this when I feel it’s ready. This mod will be kept up to date with ACE updates, and will always be fully signed for servers to use, as that is the intent of this mod. Please feel free to share any feedback you have, or requests for the mod.
This mod contains three main features, Vehicle Towing, Sling Loading, and box loading. None of these scripts are my own, but most of them are outdated, unsigned, and all in different places. This section will briefly overview the features of each.
Vehicle Towing
The Simple vehicle towing every Milsim unit ever has used. It has two farily simple features – the first is ‘Deploy tow ropes’, and the second is ‘attach tow ropes’. Revolutionary stuff, I know. Towing vehicles with more weight than your own will be more difficult, so towing a tank behind a quad bike is sadly unfeasible.
Sling Loading
As with vehicle towing, this is a bog standard sling loading mod. All you need to do is lower your heavy lift helicopter low enough to the ground, and use the scroll option to deploy ropes, where you can choose how many ropes you want to deploy, and from there you can customise their length, or retract them. A player on the ground must attach them, or it can be done when on the ground.
Boxloader
This is simply a slightly fixed version of the old logistics mod ‘Boxloader’, mostly brought up to 2023 standard. It gives logistics players the ability to load boxes onto vehicles, from flatbed trucks, to the elite quad bike logistical transport vehicle we all know and love. Also included are the ordinary Boxloader assets such as tents, medic crates, forklifts, and more. Following is a list of supported assets, provided by the boxloader dev ‘Vurtual’.

I’d like to make is very clear that these mods are not my own work. I’ve just done my best to polish them up, add some functionalites, and put them all in one place. All edits made to the PBO’s contained within that are derivative of the orignal mods MUST abide by the original licenses. All of my own scripts, as always, are fully open source. Any bug reports will attempt to be fixed, if they are on my end. All keys are signed, ready for multiplayer use. I will update this whenever a sub-mod & or ace updates.
