Expansions right order

[Ivan911]

After installation of Arma X and patch 1.62 i have noticed in Expansions that order of loading is not standard from top to bottom

Arma 2
Arma 2: OA
Arma 2: BAF
Arma 2: PMC

instead it was BAF on top and i have immediately changed it to what i know is right Arma2_OA_BAF_PMC and now any addon goes on top even when i rearrange it and restart again it looks like this

@CBA
@CBA_A2
@CBA_OA
@ACE
@ACEX
@ACEX_RU
@ACEX_USNavy
@ACEX_SM
Arma 2
Arma 2: OA
Arma 2: BAF
Arma 2: PMC

so what is correct order or it doesn't matter? (just for main game not addons)
I have also noticed that diferent servers have different order.

can you still connect to servers, do you experience lag or game stuttering due to this new load order?

JFYI, my game keeps changing the order too.

Orders? is there a proper orders needed for arma2 mod?

I played with fallout 3 mod last time and i know it require certain orders to it but does arma 2 require the same thing?

[AntiArma]

As I understand it, if you use the command line method of starting several mods, there is usually an order of preference, because the scripts 'cascade'.
ie. Scripts loaded later overwrite elements of previous ones if there are overlaps in what they are doing.

In the in-game extension menu, there are buttons for up and down, presumably so you can order the loading/cascading of the mods.
However, on restart the game always alters the order.

I don't know whether it's a bug, or whether the game is doing something intelligent. Probably it's a bug.

Yes i can connect to servers and i don't experience any performance drops but i would still like to know right order coz i learned
when i was installing ACE first time that is important in which way addons load just as AntiArma seed.

I2 think it is a bug.

Thing is that i am worried that me changing default order after install will lead to bugs and eventually crashes
so can you guys post your order if you haven't change it.

Thanks for replies.
