Known SPT issues
- Server exe has a different icon (green shape)
- Aircraft do not fire flares when performing an airdrop
- 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 in the mail
- 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, scavs can spawn in PMC spots
- Completing a quest that pushes a trader to the next loyalty level does not always correctly unlock the new level's items - workaround: buy an item from the trader to trigger the missing items to show
- Bleeds will vanish from your character on exiting a raid
- The server will not load when placed in a folder path containing Unicode characters
- Using horde mode on maps like Customs will cause large numbers of sniper scavs to spawn in the same area
- Looting a PMC dogtag doesn't always show their name on the post-raid kill screen
- High level items unlocked through quests are missing from traders' assorts, these will be added as we unlock them on live and dump the data
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 BSG's design
- Scavs are much harder to fight, this is by BSG's 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 five minutes. The workaround is to press f12 to open/close the mod menu multiple times
- Tagging items in raid with special characters, e.g.
, or "
can corrupt the profile on exiting the raid
