It depends on the types of error, there are some that will actually halt the game, but yes.

Though RimWorld modding is better than Baro modding, because you're actually cable of editing other people's items, and IIRC conditional editing (like checking if it exists first.)

Here in Barotrauma, the item must be defined in it's entirety, so you can't just edit anything that may or may not exist. Which is why you have so many "Comparability mods" on the workshop, most of them could be included in the base mod if you were allowed to say "If X item exists, add line Y to it.".

If you want to, for example, Add "Contamination resistance" to the Diving suit, you have to copy the entire code for the diving suit, with the extra line for that resistance in it.

This is why I include the line for contamination resistance, the only thing it does if the Hazardous Reactors mod isn't installed, is throw up a warning line in the console.

so is this like rimworld modding where the console puts out constant error messages but the game works just fine

They're both warnings. You can ignore them.

The first one, contamination is a compatibility thing with Hazardous Reactors, so that you can wear the suit to protect you from lethal radiation exposure when crafting with nuclear ingredients. This is one I'm not going to fix, because the two options are:
Remove it, but then it won't work right in Hazardous Reactors.
Add the affliction, but if I add the actual status effect from Hazardous Reactors, bad things could happen, and if I add a benign version, then it could mess up Hazardous Reactors.
So, best to just ignore that Warning.

The second one, StatusEffect is a result of the game code being changed, the default "This" is actually the correct effect, I can fix this one, but the functionality won't change, but the error message would go away. Thanks for reporting this.

WARNING: Potentially invalid damage modifier in "Renegade's Combat Suit, Wearable". Could not find any afflictions with the identifier "contamination". Did you mean to use an affliction type instead?
Potential error in StatusEffect (Renegade's Combat Suit, RangedWeapon). Target not defined, the effect might not work correctly. Use target="This" if you want the effect to target the entity it's defined in. Setting "This" as the target.

what is the error message?

The combat suit gives me an error message when I equip it

@Bobingabout I did it in most acceptable way, because I know how important that is for developers which making mods for free :)

In any case - thank you for permission to make it published!

@Azuma I think you did this in the most acceptable way. You linked to the original and described the changes, I can't really complain at anything you did here :3

His original intention was to be a captain alternative, but I admit didn't really turn out that way. You addressed most of his deficiencies in the captain role.

@Bobingabout Hey Bob. Thank you for this great mod!
Hope you don't mind that I have published that?

@Snail Yes, this is where I am now.

Oh shit, My fav factorio mod dev makes baro mods?

Yes, this job will do the operate turret command.

Will these guys man the turrets if you give an operate turrets command under bot control?

Sorry for the dumb question... just looking for another job that will.

As the description says, you need to install LUA for Barotrauma, and install it's client side LUA for them to show up for sale at the personnel vendor.
This was unavoidable, as the only other way to do it means overwriting a file that you probably shouldn't, and only one mod can edit this file, so it wouldn't be compatible with other mods. Since I have two Job mods, I had to find a solution without editing the file, and that solution was to use LUA. See that mod for more details: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2559634234

In single player you should start with one.

I also added 3 Hirable NPCs, one similar to Artie Dolittle, in that you just have to find him and say yes when he asks to join, The other 2 are more like Aunt Doris in that they only show up to hire if you have high reputation, one for Coalition, the other for the Separatists. These aren't dependant on LUA.

Where can I find hireable Renegades?
