The table below is a set of "expressions" that will be used to avoid writing informations that might not apply to your use case, such as the path to your SPT-AKI installation, or a randomly generated value.
| Expression | What | Example |
|---|---|---|
%game% |
SPT-AKI install location. | C:\Games\SPT-AKI |
%profileID% |
File containing a profile. | C:\Games\SPT-AKI\Server\user\profiles\9dbfcbf0d3be487b9ac20cd8.json |
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:
- Start SPT-AKI's server by going into
%game%\server\and double clicking on the server executable. - Start SPT-AKI's launcher by going into
%game%\and double clicking on the launcher executable. - Create a new profile through the launcher.
