Hey there. I have got an issue. It might be caused by SAIN or a preset I am using but wanted to ask you as well. When I team up with same faction PMCs during a raid, they tend to run, skid and halt a lot before trying to sprint again and get into a loop. This happens almost every time when they are away and trying to reach me as if their sprinting behavior is getting canceled every 1-2 seconds. But this does not happen with spawned followers from the beginning of the raid as they can follow and sprint with me without any issues. Here is the list of every mod and plugin I use. I use the latest version of these mods as I am running SPT 3.11.3;
- SVM (Only Player Scav Settings enabled)
- Delayed Flea Sales
- Ref SPT Friendly Quests
- Bot Callsigns
- Questing Bots
- MOAR
- Friendly PMC
- Like A Boss
- Live Bitcoin Redux
- Looting Bots
- Twitch Players Preset for SAIN
- Virtual Custom Quests Loader
- Virtual Custom Quests Updated
- SAIN
- Live Flea Prices
- Waypoints
- Amands Graphics
- Big Brain
- Left Stance Wall fix
HGAMEKILLER
Hi author, will there be new command and more option for customization?

Tbh, I'm trying to get the best loadout for my team but unfortunately, it kind of took me a long time to finish just for one of them. So I'm wondering if there's any plan of making customization option in the future.
Thanks for the amazing mod btw.
poipoi~
Hello author, your mod is very interesting. Can I share the latest version of the mod on the Chinese oddba forum so that many players can experience the fun of this mod?
pitAlex Author
Sure.
poipoi~
OK,Thank your perrmited and reply!
66thMarauder
Hi, love this mod. One problem with the friendly's, they don't ever switch off single-fire mode. I've only had the time to test them with the M4A1.
66thMarauder
Apologies, I think it's because certain attachment mods to the M4. I tried a different build with less mods (and im sure with a fully vanilla one as well) they do use the automatic firing mode.
QuiverQuill
Are the equipments found in raid count as loot for friendly PMCs? Sometimes they would return the guns and helmet as loot and sometimes they don't. It's kind of strange.
pitAlex Author
Whatever you give them, they return - if they make it out alive. And the thing about that is, you do not get the loot of the one that died because you extracted with one that lived.
Polarius
Little questions do the Friendly PMC's with the Logic "Sniper" change their weapons in case the Enemy get's to close?
Like as if the "On Sling" is the Marksmen/Bolt Action, they change to their "On Back" that would be a smg or vice versa?
pitAlex Author
Marksman switches to the secondary weapon. It assumes it's for close combat, so be careful what you give him; there is no actual check of what type of gun it is.
Polarius
okay that's good to know.

So Primary should be used for Sniper, Secondary for CQC (Assault Rifles etc) and then as a last resort a Pistol thanks
CabbageTryant
Thank you for your mod! It's working perfectly for me so far, with no critical bugs encountered. I was wondering, if I enable it together with "SAIN", which one is recommended to load first for better results?
pitAlex Author
It works with SAIN, though the current SAIN seems to do something to the healing, and they rarely appear as healing even though they are.
Gladio780
i can´t access the file, because of Google Drive
RogueTech67
Same here
Polarius
Yep same.
pitAlex Author
It's fixed. Sorry about that, forgot to properly set the sharing options
Krammmit
Hey, I havent seen anyone else have this problem so ive been wondering why this just happened. I unlocked BirdEye as a companion to invite in raids. Then when I try to invite any of the goons they decline my invite and send me a threating message. Does anyone know why this is happening? I have good karma and all.
pitAlex Author
Because you have quests that either have you kill the Goons or kill Rogues
Krammmit
Ah I see, I didnt have the quests to kill Goons but rogues. Thank you very much.
QuiverQuill
Hi, there's a small issue I discovered. The problem might be in the looting bots mod? The issue is that when I let my squardmate pick up my loot, he didn't return it at the end of the raid. I also noticed that no 'end raid' message was sent. It had happened for a few times in a row, so I thought something was up. The possible cause was the looting bots mod, cause my squadmate returned loot normally before the mod was installed. I will do some experiments and see if it's truly the cause. If anyone has had similar experience, please leave a reply.
QuiverQuill
Updates: I uninstalled Looting Bots and tried again. My squadmate didn't return loot at the end. I was testing by dropping my own gun and telling him to loot it, then extract. I deleted the old squadmate and created a new one, thinking the system might mistake him for a 'rogue' or something like that, so my loot wasn't returned. The result was still negative. I am clueless now... I am pretty sure the mod worked fine when I installed it. I don't know what might have caused it.
(I use my squadmate to carry heavyweight for me. I will drop my heavy back to him and then run to extract. Do equipments not count as loot? I think he returned my rig and backpack just fine before?)
QuiverQuill
Also, the only mods I was using were this mod, its dependencies listed in the installation guide, Dynamic Map, AI Limit, Raid Time Toy, and Budget Bullet Time.
QuiverQuill
Huh... strange... The problem seems to lie in my loadout? I assigned a loadout with only a gun to my squadmate so I can drop my own full backpacks and rigs to let him carry them for me. I tried let him use default loadout this time and he did return my backpack and the loot inside it... So the problem lies in my way too simplistic loadout?
pitAlex Author
You are going to have problems if you don't give them at least a rig. Bots are just not made to have no "loot container" on them
QuiverQuill
Uh, yes, that's where the problem lies. I took the issue in the wrong direction. I noticed that bots won't move if I don't assign him a weapon, so I thought the reason behind the loot-return issue lies in the problem that he doesn't have space for the mags. I tried give him a pistol. Then I tried assign him a backpack with the same result.
Thanks for answering and making this wonderful mod. I remember playing the earlier version of this mod, when the friendly PMCs are more like guards that follow you around and, more often than not, block my path, It has advanced so far from that point. Appreciate your work, mate.
Eternity20
emm,I have some problems when I using this mod with skills extended.When I go in raid with followers,skills extended will fail, and I have no idea what caused it.
Has anyone here encountered this problem? This issue makes me sad. Once I want to play with my followers, I can't enjoy the benefits of Skills Extended.
But overall, the friendly PMC has given me a very good gaming experience. I really hope this little isuue will be fixed one day in the future.
maisch777
just wanted to thank you for your amazing work.
Tried this mod in earlier SPT versions. They were not very useful in the past. But in current state they are great.
One of my favorite mods right now!
Please keep it up!
wanderingouroboros
are these bots able to use magazines/medical supplies from their backpack?
maisch777
pitAlex wrote in gameplay guide ,,Giving them items will not give any return after a raid, so stick to giving them only meds, if needed."
so yes, i think so.
But i think its not important, because they spawn with very very much ammo and meds in their secure container. You can see it in their loadouts when loading a raid. They never should be out of ammo in my opinion. Maybe meds, but they even carry multiple afaks.
wanderingouroboros
yeah i was just wondering because i gave one an MG setup with a shitton of box mags though they never seemed to bother healing with the grizzly in their backpack nor did they refill empty vest slots with those magazines
Gulgajol
i can't change the bots loadout. when i use the command /staticdefault nothing happens and even if i go into a raid and they die there loadout doesn't change
pitAlex Author
Have you created any custom equipment build? Otherwise they will use "Default" which changes only each time you re-select it from the profile view screen, and that is, unless you have /staticdefault on.
MARbor
I don't have a button to choose how many allies will be in the squad and choose their equipment, and I play in Russian, in F12 everything is in Russian. Can something be done about this?
MARbor
and I can't call bots to the squad during the raid, they always refuse
pitAlex Author
You are coming from a pre-4 version of the plugin. Starting version 4, things changed drastically in how you do squad setup. Please read the mod description fully.
MARbor
thx
MegaDweeb
I've been having an issue where one of my friendlies dying causes the game to freeze, then crash. I can't identify any pattern other than - they die, a second passes, then the game hard freezes. This doesn't seem to happen at all when I am the one to kill them, only when they're shot by another bot, and it's very unreliable, only seems to happen half of the time. Any ideas of what might cause it?
pitAlex Author
There should be error in FullLogOutput.log in BepInex/plugins
E_lizard
Got attacked by PMC from the same faction (usec) three times in a row, should not be related to pmc karma as I have not gotten any sound that indicates your karma being lowered ( or this mechanism is different from live?)
pitAlex Author
There is no guarantee that the same faction of PMC will all be friendly; sometimes, they make you an active enemy as soon as they spawn. Othertimes is right after combat. They glitch.
Can also be something with the USEC faction, whoever complains about this seems to always be USEC.
chiconspiracy
E_lizard, if you're interested in digging into the vanilla files and some modified by mods like this one and SAIN, here are my notes and tests on what MIGHT affect how often they randomly murder you for no reason:
--Configs/ pmc.json--
Set Bot amount with "isUsec" for testing (recommend adding the dev_balaclava for this)
"pmcType" might override bot brains? Try taking bosses and stuff out of "pmcusec"
"usecEnemyChance": 0,
"UsecPlayerBehaviour": "AlwaysFriends" instead of "UsecPlayerBehaviour": "ChancedEnemies"
--USEC.json and pmcUSEC.json--
"DEFAULT_ENEMY_USEC": false,
"DEFAULT_USEC_BEHAVIOUR": "AlwaysFriends",
"ENEMY_BY_GROUPS_PMC_PLAYERS": false,
"CHANCE_FUCK_YOU_ON_CONTACT_100": 0.0,
E_lizard
Thanks chiconspiracy, this is inspiring.
chiconspiracy
After lots more testing, I may have finally found a culprit.
In your pmc's profile, it lists you as ' "Role": "assault" ' which I understood to be the same class as the NPC scavs.
I tested a few maps by changing the "ChancedEnemies": lists for "BotRole": "pmcUSEC",
(it looks like this now)
{
"EnemyChance": 0,
"Role": "assault"
},
and just in case I added it to the "AlwaysFriends" lists instead.
"AlwaysFriends": [
"assault",
"bossZryachiy",
"followerZryachiy",
"peacefullZryachiyEvent",
"ravangeZryachiyEvent",
"gifter"
],
I've gone about a dozen raids in different maps without being attacked... USEC is still killing the Scav NPCS too... I'm not sure if they are initially friendly with them until being fired on or not though.
Also another step I tried previously was setting USECEnemyChance to 0 and adding an additional line underneath so it looks like this:
"UsecEnemyChance": 0,
"UsecPlayerBehaviour": "AlwaysFriends",
I'm not sure if it will be needed or not, but if the ChancedEnemies and AlwaysFriends changes alone don't work it might be worth trying.
stasryb
Can we disable Knight as a trader altogether? Not gonna do his missions.
pitAlex Author
Set "enabled" to false in user/mods/friendlyPMC/traderKnight/settings.json.
ShadowRaptor
So for some strange reason, this mod seems to be crashing the game after a while in raid... I'm uncertain of exactly what log file or whatever to look into, if there even is one, to figure out what the problem is... even better is that i literally cannot tell why because it seems to be completely random... sometimes after only 10-15 minutes and sometimes it takes upwards of 30-40...
My literal only guess i have is the game trying to spawn knight and his squad later on in the map since it only ever seems to happen on maps they can spawn on (factory with SVM, lighthouse, most often on customs, much more rarely on shoreline for some reason, and woods is just its own bag of worms...) and the game seems to always last longer without squad active or if they die early
Also crashing heavily on ground zero but highly unlikely to be related, seems to happen randomly after like 10-20 minutes and with or without active squadmates...
idefelipe
Maybe I have some bad configuration, but... does it happen to you that the spawn spot is always the same? (or one each two times)
pitAlex Author
I am not sure why you would say "bad configuration". You can choose to turn off "Coop" spawn points. They are a lot less than "Player".
idefelipe
Sorry, english is not my mother language. I meant that when I set to spawn with a partner, we always spawn in the same location (or two locations).
So if coop spawn points is turned off then we would spawn normally?
Thanks in advance
pitAlex Author
Turn it off and you will spawn in normal player spots
An7ero
I had to create an account just to say how much I appreciate your work!

Brings a whole new depth to the gameplay and I don't feel so screwed in intense boss/PMC group fights anymore. Healing for example feels safer, when you've got a support with a P90 next to you covering your ass and a shotty chad pushing the enemy with LVL5 juggernaut armor. Though occasionally I've been onetapped to the nape by my group as a swarm of enemies push us. But hey! That is part of the gameplay in PvP too
Works smoothly without issue with SAIN, BigBrain, MOAR + Bagels, LootingBots and Geko's better progression. Comms work relatively consistently, understandably so as there are a plethora of states the bot can be in.
Only issue or annoying thing I've ever come across is that sometimes the bots cover you by blocking the doorways even you tell them to scatter. Just a couple more commands and they start moving their ass out of the way. Other than that IMO, you've revolutionized the SPT gameplay the most, right after SAIN.
Well done, God bless
xx BUCKSHOT xx
Just wanted to say, Im a big dummy. I had this working on 3.9? but had NO IDEA you updated it so much!! adding in members through the menu like that.. SO COOL haha
Appreciate the work so much!!
My only 2 goals right now? Make him less of a CHAD. I want Support from him, but he's dominating enemies and bosses lmao.
ALso you said "If you use 'PAUSE' mod it may cause his footsteps to be silent?
that would be PERFECT! the stress I have and why I disable the mod, is constantly believing an enemy is running up on me keeps me on edge too much lol. But then he'd just "APPEAR"
which may be worse
adudewithbadaim
I had an issue with friendly PMC dominating as well. I made a loadout with lowgrade ammo and gave it to him. Worked out quite well.
pitAlex Author
I don't see them dominating anything but scavs. They die against raiders, against other PMC, and they die in a way that makes me want to make them even more aim-pro.
RTXENJOER
hello why all friendly side pmc attack me (am not attack them ) ?
p.s i use standart setting of you mod
pitAlex Author
Are you running with the Goons? You are an enemy to all when running with Knight or the other Goons.
RTXENJOER
am going with out squad(and no goons ) and only spawned and got killed by bear (am bear to) / i use sain
RTXENJOER
is SAIN uncompatibility ?
Daten
Hi ! Is there a particular reason why i can equip modded clothing on my squad members but not custom heads or voices ?
pitAlex Author
The mod list, whatever is made available as customization, as seen when it was with "all the clothes" mod. But not all mod make things available in a standard way so they won't be available in the customization list.
Daten
I forgot to edit my comment yesterday but i eventually thought about a very simple workaround: just going into friendlyPMC's files and tweaking the squadmate's profile to edit the head id works just well !
Thekillergreece
I started replaying SPTarkov for real after >1 year inactivity and damn, this mod really progressed far. I applaud you for that.
Just a 3 questions as I didn't test it myself.
1. IF NOT PART OF YOUR SQUAD, you kill a Goon member (when they are friendly to you thanks to completing quests), will the surviving Goon members attack you?
2. If you got a squad with you, will Goons mark you as enemy? And your squad marks them as enemy?
3. If you get attacked by Scavs, Scav Boss, Partisan and the likes, will the Goons (WHILE NOT BEING PART OF YOUR SQUAD!) react and attack them or ignore them? I had Partisan attacking me and Goons didn't really react.
And one minor issue which I didn't test extensively; Rogues will flip you off if you approach their hood even if Goons are friendly to you (but not part of squad).
pitAlex Author
Depends on what other mods you have that mess with bot's brain.
But if you attack any Rogue (that includes the Goons), all Rogue factions turn hostile towards you. Careful with marking enemies, you can mark a Rogue as an enemy even though you are friends. And Goons do not jump to your help if you get attacked while not with them.
uoislame
does the friends feel super non responsive for anyone? i've had multiple times (before and after SAIN) where bro will just watch a scav walk up to me and blast me when im looting. even if i call out someone, they sometimes just do nothing. ive been behind cover just getting sprayed at by scavs and guy will be sitting there doing nothing.
pitAlex Author
Depends on what other mods you have that mess with bot's brain.
chiconspiracy
Is anyone else getting randomly attacked by the same side PMC bots? I'm USEC and have been testing on labs and they randomly open fire on me whenever they see me.
pitAlex Author
They are not random, there is no guarantee the same side will be 100% friendly all the time. This is mentioned under "known issues". There is an entire PMC karma system that can overwrite things, and it cannot be disabled.
chiconspiracy
That's annoying. I checked my profile and confirmed I have zero USEC kills.
pitAlex Author
Don't your followers react ahead of time?
chiconspiracy
Testing on reserve now, trying to get them to survive to another USEC attack point. I swear one time they were just happily shooting at some distant scavs while a USEC guy was churning up the pillar I was hiding behind though.
chiconspiracy
Ok, recreated. Random USEC guy with an M60 just killed my squad members while trying to hit me while they ignored him completely. I confirmed the after action stats and I still haven't shot any USEC guys.
*I repeated one more time. My team will mark the USEC guy who is blasting me as hostile but won't actually engage him.
Boidmachine
I don't want him to be my teammate when I'm doing Knight's mission, what should I do? (He will affect my lightkeeper mission)

When I am doing the knight's mission, my teammates will be knights. When I want to do the lighthouse trader's mission, they will actually attack the cultists, which prevents me from entering the lighthouse trader's room.
pitAlex Author
You should go to that Island alone, not with followers.
hypnoex
Mod simply does not work. i don't know if I'm doing something wrong, but I tried even on a clean install and installing only this mod and it's dependencies. I can create friends and invite them just fine, but once I join a raid, they don't spawn. They're not there, I cannot teleport them using the hotkey, there's basically no indication of them spawning. Maybe I'm missing a step or something??
pitAlex Author
You are having conflicts, another mod in interfering with the spawning process. Moar and Acid bot placement work fine, I don't know of others.
hypnoex
As I said I tried launching the game only with this mod and it's independencies, so I'm guessing it's not an issue with mod conflicts, probably something on my end.
InhumAnts
This happens for me as well but only on the first raid. However it is every client launch this happens. likewise, I have tested with a fresh install with only this mod and its dependencies. It still happens on its lonesome. I have found a work around to get them to spawn in on the first raid every time though if you do not want to do any raid solo.
Invite or do autojoin setup>Kick bots>Escape from Tarkov>Select PMC>Select a map(Thats when bots should join again or send an invite)>kick bots again>Back out to main menu>Escape From Tarkov>Select PMC>Select Map(they should join for a third time or invite them again at this point)>Head into raid and they load with no issue
shorter version not 100% like 60ish maybe
Escape>PMC>Select a map>Setup Auto join>kick bots>Back out to main menu>Escape>Select PMC>Select Map(Autojoin will kick in)>Head into raid and if they load, they load with no issue
oooor what I normally do is just setup up autojoin, let them not load, just do a raid solo and it works itself out for the next one. I will add I did notice this for both autojoin and invite but like i stated for myself its only the inital raid after launch
pitAlex Author
Are there no errors? Either in the server console or in FullLogOutput.log
InhumAnts
Nope, I've not seen any errors in console. Only "error" I get is a plate mismatch when a bot spawns with no plate in a slot but that more or less just a warning not an error. I will double check the Log output when I'm on next.
kiksuya44
It seems I lost enemy markers since last update? I always keep enemy markers on, and it's working fine before update.
kiksuya44
Nvm. The markers' back in a new raid. It's odd.
