# ARMATAK Player's Guide
For the newcomers to the TAK environment: ATAK (Android Team Awareness Kit) is a Situation Awareness application used by many military, law enforcement, concerned citizens in the world. In game, you can use it as a realistic blue force tracker to know where your allies are, where they are pointing and share information if you have never used it, take some time to test it before you join a game session that will use ATAK with ARMATAK.

If you have never used it, take some time to test it before you join a game session that will use ATAK with ARMATAK. Using the ARMATAK mod, you have two ways to use ATAK, the first and simple one is to ask your mission maker to link your unit into the ARMATAK CoT Router module, and it will be streamed on the TAK Server as a fake device connected to the server. The other and more complex way is to use SIMTAK, that will change your phone's location into the game's location and there is no better way to simulate a phone in the arma 3 scenario that moving the phone's location into it.

If you are not going to use SIMTAK, just go to your connections and add the desired TAK Server instance that your game session will use and you are good to go, if not, follow the SIMTAK installation bellow.
