ARMATAK is a server side Arma 3 addons for streaming unit positions to TAK Clients in sessions on real locations maps. It can be runned both as a clientside mod or a serverside mod, when runned serverside, it will create a TCP Socket connection between Arma 3 and the TAK Server, sending the game session information into it. When used clientside, Arma 3 will host a websocket server that you can connect to your phone and mock the phone's location to the player's in game location.
ARMATAK allow players to check in game information on a ATAK device, using your phone as a real Blue Force Tracker with 3D imagery and video feed from the player's PoV. This mod needs a configured ATAK Server in order to work, check the documentation on GitHub or hop on Discord to get it working.

# Video Streaming
ATAK allow users to connect into a video feed provider, it was designed to be allow video feed from street camera, drones, and operator cameras, we can simulate this in Arma 3 by creating a video stream from the screen and sharing it into a MediaMTX server. You can find information about installing MediaMTX here, and it also comes installed with OpenTakServer by default, just make sure it is working by going into the OTS Web UI and generating a video stream from the browser. ARMATAK can create/stop a video feed from Arma 3 using FFMEG, here is how:
1. Make sure you have a configured RTSP video stream protocol provider like [MediaMTX](https://github.com/bluenviron/mediamtx) configured, if you have installed OTS using the default installation script it should be there
2. Install [FFMPEG for Windows](https://www.ffmpeg.org/download.html) on the streamer's machine
3. Open the mission
4. Add the ARMATAK Video Provider Module in 3Den Editor and fill the MediaMTX Address, Port and authentication from a user (usually administrator, password)
5. In game, you or your player's can start a video stream using the ACE Self Action menu
