OH! I'm glad you brought that up! Here's what happened when I got back to the island while he was trying to hotwire my heli (my 2nd buddy ended up getting killed too which wasn't in the previous video, so the enemy guy had full control of the island at that point). I'm sure you can understand why I was in full inner-rage mode after this (as if I wasn't already lol).
OPSEC = OPerations SECurity. In short, when you're making a ton of noise and likely attracting attention, it's probably best to be on the lookout for anyone posing a threat, lol.
Hope you enjoy the video at the expense of my sanity

Simple fix. One of you needs to define a game port in your launch parameters. Probably a good idea for both of you to set them in the off chance you try to join a server that uses the same port you define. You just need to make sure that they are different from each other and they are at least +/- 3 from each other.
Step 1:
Go to your launch parameters for Arma 3 and add:
-port=####
Replace the #### with the port number. For example:
(Computer 1): -port=2350
(Computer 2): -port=2355
Step 2: Enjoy playing on the same server without disconnects.
If you are familiar enough with coding to be able to do just a small bit of research to find the information you need, you can use a program called AutoHotKey to re-map another key to function as your Windows key (or make a hotkey such as Ctrl + Shift + Z to simulate pressing your Windows key).
