Known SPT issues
- RARE: 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
- Your active 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
- Extracts are not the same as live, scavs can spawn in PMC spots
- The server will not load when placed in a folder path containing Unicode characters (Japanese and Korean characters especially)
- Looting a PMC dogtag doesn't always show their name on the post-raid kill screen
- Some 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
- Insured quest items that are consumed in a quest can be returned to the player
- The hideout wall is a hot mess right now, BSG have refactored how it works and we need to gut all of the server code that interacts with it and start again. Expect weirdness.
- The post-raid screen shown after a scav raid displays 0 XP, this is incorrect and your scav does earn XP from the raid
- Clicking sort on a container can sometimes cause items to vanish
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
configs/ragfair.json/dynamic/blacklist/enableBsgList/false
- Rogues are insanely difficult, this is by BSG's design
- Tagging items in raid with special characters, e.g.
, or "
can corrupt the profile on exiting the raid - Using horde mode on maps like Customs will cause large numbers of sniper scavs to spawn together in clumps, avoid using
horde mode
on all maps except factory Receive All
shows when nothing can be collected from mail- The first time you turn the generator on inside the hideout causes a bug where the client asks for it to be switched off instead of on, clicking the power button on/off again fixes this
