Better Cleanup

Description
Changes what bots consider as preferred target containers for the cleanup order. This mod is vanilla only, it doesn't add or remove anything so it is save to add/remove at any point.

This mod only affects AI controlled crew-mates with the cleanup order! To be extra clear:

- Only affects the "Cleanup Items" order.
- It just tells the bots to prefer the type of container mentioned below. What the bot actually does is up to the game code and this mod doesn't change that!

Singleplayer
- Doesn't affect the character you actively control.
- Affects any other of your crew-mates because the AI controls them while you don't.

Multiplayer
- Doesn't affect player characters.
- Affects bots you hire.


The vanilla game nowadays already does most of the things that the mod used to do.
Here is a list of the last few remaining changes this mod makes:

----------------------------------------

Oxygen Tanks:
Bots will put them into chargers unless full. The oxygen tank shelves and diving suit lockers accept power and should be wired up already. You can attach a power wire in case it isn't.
Bots will only insert full tanks into masks and suits.
Bots will only insert full tanks into diving cabinet.
Tanks will no longer spawn in supply cabinets, that's required so that bots will not insert any tanks into supply cabinets. They will however insert oxygen tanks into empty masks that are stored in a supplycab!

----------------------------------------

Batteries:
Now go into charging stations up until 99% condition.
Bots will only insert full batteries into devices.
Bots will only insert full batteries into diving cabinet.
Bots will prioritize devices that can hold batteries but are empty and put the rest into diving cabinets.
Bots will not put fulgurium into devices by themselves. All of the fulgurium batteries go into chargers if not full or diving cabinet if full.

----------------------------------------

Plant Products:
Bots will put any plant product that isn't tabacco into the medical fabricator cabinet.
Bots will put tabacco into the "storagecab" which is usually the cabinet next to the fabricator.

The base game tries to put them into "plantcontainer" but it doesn't look like anything is tagged with that. If the devs ever change the tagging of the storage cabinets to include that tag the bots will use that one instead.

Bots don't want to put oxygen tanks in the costume drawer (classic version)

Nobaru, you can use WinMerge if you want to update it yourself manually. It's very shrimple.

Just make a local mod for overriding. I combined other mods (barocraftables and storage icons) to make them put items in those containers as well.

Bots still don't fill up devices with full oxygen tanks/batteries or take them out in vanilla. The only thing they do is put them in the oxygen generator/recharger when they're lying around, and you still have to manually take them out.

It seems like that bots are still bad in this game, unfortunately.

Thanks for letting me know. I don't really look at this mod a lot because the devs made most of what it used to do part of vanilla. It's probably going to take a bit until I get to it.

The mod will alter the game to appear as in an older game version, with changes like the oxygen and fuel-wielding tank stack size reverted, etc.

It's one of the few bot-improving mods that I consider necessary to have.

Please update.

Does this Also Handle Materials?

You were entirely correct.
After disabling every mod, the bots still did it anyway, and checking their latest announcement, it seems it's base game behaviour that's bugged.
Apologies mate, I've gone back and re-subscribed.

You are having issues with another mod in that case. This mod doesn't even modify guns or ammo. And it doesn't make the bots do anything by themselves. As the first sentence in the description says: Changes what bots consider as preferred target containers for the cleanup order. That's it.

Crewmates outside the ship will remove diving suits to go store them and die.
The bots remove the oxygen tanks from diving suits in suit storage and store them on lockers. Then don the empty diving suits and die from suffocation.
The mechanics are kleptomaniacs, remove 100% charged batteries from every equipment and try to charge them. If they can't, they either keep it on their belt, or store it somewhere.
Security guards empty their revolvers and neatly pack their bullets away, where they're safe and unable to be fired at all.

That's how Barotrauma item modding works. Sorry, nothing I can do.
S.S.Mogeko 15 Apr, 2023 @ 1:02am 
Why does this mod override some of the items? Like batteries and plants and O2 tanks?
This makes them incompatible with other mods that use them...?
