Expression | What | Example
|
||
|
|
--------------|-----------------------------|--------

|
||
|
|

## Creating a new profile
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You want a way to fool around in SPT-AKI but without also ruining the fun of having a character evolving normally. As such creating a new dedicated profile is probably the best way of achiving this goal.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To create a new profile:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Start SPT-AKI's server by going into `%game%\server\` and double clicking on the server executable.
|
||
|
|
2. Start SPT-AKI's launcher by going into `%game%\` and double clicking on the launcher executable.
|
||
|
|
3. Create a new profile through the launcher.
