Known SPT issues

• Old airdrop code no longer works and had to be removed from SPT. We are actively writing new airdrop code but it will take a significant amount of time. They will eventually return in a future release
• Flare guns do not summon air drops, this may be added in a future release
• Scav daily quests have not been implemented, they will be added in a future release
• Sometimes you'll start a map with no extracts, the only way to escape is to press alt+f4
• Some quests need PMCs to spawn in map locations with no bot spawns making them impossible to complete (e.g. kill x PMCs in scav fortress/base)
• Selecting the overview tab as a scav can break your client - workaround: alt+f4 to escape
• Looting while extracting can break the client - workaround: alt+f4 to escape
• Flashbangs don’t give the ear ringing (tinnitus) effect
• Christmas items can still be found as loot
• Your flea offers are marked as expired when the server is offline and items are returned
• Flea categories don't always show the correct number of offers when filtering by item
• Time drift - the server and raid times slowly drift apart over time
• Extracts are not the same as live, PMC only extracts appear for scavs
• Completing a quest that pushes a trader to the next loyalty level does not always correctly unlock the new levels items' - workaround: buy an item from trader
• Bleeds will vanish from your character on exiting a raid
• End of raid experience screen shows slightly incorrect experience values (profile still saves correct values)
• The server will not load when placed in a folder path containing unicode characters
• Using horde mode will cause large numbers of sniper scavs to spawn in the same area

Known NON-SPT issues

• BSG have blacklisted a lot of high-level items from the flea. You can disable this blacklist by using a mod / editing the ragfair config.
• Rogues are insanely difficult, this is by BSGs design
• Scavs are much harder to fight, this is by BSGs design
• Game stuttering/lag will occur when bots spawn in
• Being killed when looting causes the game client to soft-lock
• Opening a 120 bullet ammo pack in-raid creates a single stack of 120
• The game can get stuck on the menu loading screen for 5 minutes. The workaround is to press f12 to open/close the menu multiple times

New Features

• Added item spawn limit functionality for all bots
  • Loot carried by bots can now be limited to a maximum of x of that type e.g. limit of 2 keys per raider
• Scav case reward generation was reworked to better match live
  • New config/scavcase.json config, lots of new options to adjust

• Added a new ammo weighting system to all bots
  • Each bot can have their ammo adjusted to be more or less common
  • Removed majority of PMC ammo blacklist in favour of heavily weighting them to be uncommon
  • Can be configured from bot.json

  • Not used by default in SPT, for use by modders
• Added system to spawn randomly generated guns into PMCs backpacks to simulate live players looting guns off other players. 15% chance to spawn a gun in their backpack.

Changes

• Scav to PMC conversion chance now has two values, min and max, this brings additional variability to PMCs appearing in raids
  • Renamed from types to scavToPmcChance in config/bot.json
• Reworked how quests are stored in the profile json, code will run on login to migrate old profile quest data to the new format
• Updated SPT Easy-Start profile

• Added more Patreon supporter names as PMCs
• Updated quest data with live dump data
• Updated trader assort data with live dump data
• Insurance return chance can now be more finely adjusted down to 0.01 scale

Fixes

• Stop barter offers showing on flea when 'no bartering offers' is checked
• Improved how the hideout code handles areas with resource use (fuel/filters):
  • Fixed issue where FiR status was not preserved from items entering areas and exiting

  • Fixed issue where filters would have their resource value reset to max when removed
• Improved insurance mail - will show the map you died on

Modders

• CustomItemService has been added, adds an item to the game (itemsDb/handbookDb/fleaPriceDb/ localeDb)
  • Two flavours, based on an existing item and not
    • createItemFromClone() - all item properties are taken from the designated item, property overrides are used to alter the items details
    • createItem() - Everything for the new item must be defined
  • Both approaches return a CreateItemResult object with the new items templateId, success boolean and errors, a string array with errors if any occur
• A loaded mods name and author are written to the console just prior to it being loaded
• ApplicationContext - provides access to some variables to help in making mods
  • SessionId - can be used to get the profile of the currently active player
  • Current map data - Can be used ascertain what map the player is loading into, this information could be used to create map-specific changes to bots/player/maps
• New class BotEquipmentFilterService, uses the new config section found in config/bot.json/equipment
  • Each bot type can have multiple blacklist objects;
    levelRange: (object - min and max properties)what player level should this blacklist apply for
    equipment: (string array) What equipment Tpls cannot be used by the bot
    cartridge: (string array) What cartridge Tpls cannot be used by the bot
  • Can also have a whitelist, the whitelist takes priority and disables the blacklist if found
    • levelRange: same as above
    • equipment: (string array) What equipment Tpls should be blacklisted from the bot
    • cartridge: (string array) What cartridge Tpls cannot be used by the bot
• Altered how quests are stored in the profile, uses the enum value instead of the enum value name (2 instead of Started) to better match live profile data
• Updated BepinEx to 5.4.21
• applyRandomizeDurabilityLossadded to config/repair.json config
• templatesById property in InsuranceService and its usage in getItemPrice() was removed and replaced with a direct call to handbook data to get the insurance cost of an item instead of using a cached dictionary created on server load
• Lots of hard coded variables were moved into config files, e.g. weaponSkillRepairGain in config/repair.json

The example mods have been updated for 3.2.0
