https://github.com/parkervcp/eggs/issues/2879 implies only the startup flag needs to be added to resolve the issue. If the Arma server can automatically create the missing folder, I don't think we need to adjust the install script. Also, I don't think we need a variable for the folder location. I would just hardcode it into the startup command personally (that way an end-user doesn't accidentally put it in a reserved folder that somehow breaks things).

This will need testing either way to make sure it works. If arma can create the folder on its own then a hard coded value in the startup should be fine but a company may want it configurable to match mounts they have configured.

But it's a temp/throwaway folder just for downloading, no? Why would you assign it to a mount? Only reason I can think of would be to give free space other than what is allocated.

I can think of many reasons. They could mount to hdd based storage instead of ssd based to save on writes to the disk and have the disks last longer.

I also argue for more configurable when possible.

That's fair. I also just realized the variable is not user-editable, which works for me 👍
