Offers a range of features for addon-makers and mission designers.
Aims to have community wide acceptance and to be used as much as possible by community addons to maintain compatibility.
The community is very much encouraged to request or submit functionality- The most obvious example would be to submit functions to be included in the CBA function library.

Change log for CBA v3.6.1
CBA_A3 v3.6.0.180131
This update adds Russians translations, the "extended weapon animations framework" usable for bolt action rifles and pump action shotguns, the ability to bind addon key actions to joysticks (indirectly, read documentation!), and a scripted event handler for the completed mission loading screen.
It also fixes a bug where Zeus can not rotate objects that were created on the server.
>>> WARNING! <<<
This release removes a pbo file and key. Make sure to delete the old @CBA_A3 folder before dropping the patched version into your game directory.
