### <font color="orange">Can i play with friends on SPTarkov ?</font> ### Getting the lastest version of SPT-AKI
In order to play with your friends, you need to buy an Escape From Tarkov copy at https://www.escapefromtarkov.com/preorder-page Head over the [`#tutorials`](https://www.guilded.gg/senkospub/groups/B36wYEeD/channels/16291b64-bd22-4e1a-8af5-11f5e69fd9d8/docs) chan, on the [SPT-AKI's guilded server]((https://www.guilded.gg/senkospub)).
**SPTarkov will never hold multiplayer capabilitys.**. So no you will not be able to play with your friends using SPTarkov. Even if you find videos that show people playing with other people on it, it's not made by SPTarkov tarkov team, and it's absolutely not related to it too. ### Playing with friends / multiplayer
### <font color="orange">Where is the `bots_f`folder?</font> In order to play with your friends, you need to buy an Escape From Tarkov copy [here](https://www.escapefromtarkov.com/preorder-page).
<img src="./assets/img/goose.jpg" width="120" height="120"/> *SPT-AKI will not have multiplayer capabilities*. It isn't on our "roadmap" and is not the goal of the project. If you ever find videos of people playing with others, it's not made by the SPT-AKI developers and is not related to it.
## <font color="red">Building from source questions</font> ### Cleaning the temporary EFT directory
### <font color="orange">When building the modules project I get a "code 4" error</font> To clean this directory:
Check the directory path where you are building the project, it should not have any spaces in it e.g. - Open the windows start menu.
- Type `%temp%` in the searchbar.
- Open this directory and look for `Battlestate Games`.
- Delete this directory
`C:\This is a bad directory name\modules\project` You're done.
See below for a good example of a directory structure. ### Using the underbarrel grenade launcher
`C:\SPTarkovDev\modules\project\` The underbarrel grenade launcher (GP-34) have issues when reloading that will block your character and prevent you from anything else in a raid.
## <font color="red">Unrelated questions</font> It's not meant to be useable *(at the moment)*, otherwise it would be available on the official game.
### <font color="orange">Where can i download the last version of SPTarkov ?</font> ### No bots during raids
Just head over the [#tutorials](https://www.guilded.gg/senkospub/groups/B36wYEeD/channels/16291b64-bd22-4e1a-8af5-11f5e69fd9d8/docs) section in the SPTarkov guilded.
Link : https://www.guilded.gg/senkospub In order to get bots to spawn, you need to check the `Enable PVE` checkbox in the raid screen.
### <font color="orange">The game is stuck at the loading page</font> ### Stuck in the right click menu UI
This means your assemblies version is wrong or your client version is wrong. Use the lastest files available only in the SPTarkov guilded.
### <font color="orange">How do i clean my temporary EFT folder ?</font> To fix this, you can reduce your mouse right click speed in the windows options.
For cleaning this folder, open the windows start menu and search **%temp%**.
Open this folder and look for **Battlestate Games**. Delete this folder and it's done! ![Windows 10 mouse settings menu](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/681319583533236255/713398124772851802/unknown.png)

No you can't, the grenade launcher is having issues when reloading which blocks your character of doing anything else in a game. It's not meant to be useable, otherwise it would be available on the official game.

That's normal, in order to get bots to spawn, you need to check the "Enable PVE" checkbox in the raid screen.
