Barotrauma Dev Tracker

They're included in the item config files in "Content/Items/"

Yep, "plantcontainer" would be put in the cabinet the same way as you'd use "storagecab". I'm not sure why that didn't work though, "plantcontainer" is defined as the primary container for the plants. I think I'll do some debugging.

How these tags work is that each item defines its "preferred containers" in the xml. For example, a welding fuel tank prefers to go inside welding tools, engineering cabinets and such. These are also used to fill up the subs with the initial supplies (hence the spawn probability and min/max amount values).

I'm glad you brought this up! Not being as closely involved with sub building as some of the other people in the dev team, I've sometimes resorted to looking up the tags in the item config files when doing something related to them, and thought to myself that we should make assigning the tags easier at some point™️. But it never fully occurred to me how big of an impact this one hard-to-use feature of the sub editor actually might have on the game as a whole; I'm certain there are a lot of sub builders who aren't even aware of the feature, and as a consequence the bots most likely tend to perform worse for people who mostly play on custom subs.

I think we'll need to bump up the priority on this and make this part of sub building a little more user-friendly soon!

I wish there was a way to label spent ammo to go somewhere different other than where full ammo goes. So far I haven’t figured out a way to have them automatically pick up fruit that falls on th...

It seems that the issue with "All-Seeing Eye" still wasn't fully fixed in the December patch, but so far we haven't been able to find a way to get this to occur. If you happen to have a save file available with this bugged engineer in it, it might help us diagnose the issue. You could post the save file (or any other extra information that you might have) in the ticket in our GitHub issue tracker, or if you don't want to create a GitHub account, this thread is fine too. :)

Thanks and sorry for the inconvenience!

Well said.

I agree that we have a lot of work ahead of us in improving the AI. But as said, it is an enormously complex task to get them to act smart in every possible scenario, including custom submarines with unusual solutions, systems and layouts that we hadn't accounted for (and often with issues in the way their waypoints have been set up). So improving and fixing the AI will most definitely be an ongoing task that we'll keep doing until the eventual full release and beyond.

Overhauling the entire AI for the next update, or even the one after that, is simply not possible I'm afraid; even if our AI programmers didn't sleep there still wouldn't be enough hours in a day to pull that off.

But in any case, there's lots of useful criticism and feedback in this thread. We'll keep these in mind as we continue improving the AI and ironing out issues like these! :)

This is a known issue in the current public version: the artifact missions can sometimes break like this when there's no space in the artifact holder(s) inside the ruins. We've got a fix coming up in the next patch though. Sorry for the trouble!
