AI Limit

[By The Heavens!]

The limit be 16. I hate limits. I've tried tons of ways to try and remove this limit, even recompiling the game code to allow over 16 and still, its just hard coded elsewhere.

If there is any insight or ways to solve this I'd love to hear it so I can play the game the way I wish to play it with my pc burning.

Console works if you are ok playing without achievements. F3 to open console and type enablecheats. Then you simply spawn crew members. For example, spawncharacter engineer cursor.

I see that you have commented on a lot of these AI posts, and that is not a permanent solution. The bots will despawn to the hard limit of 16 per mission. Sorry but that isnt what Im looking for.

I'm not confident it will work. In fact I don't think its likely to work. But I've had luck with other problems doing this before.

Something that might be worth trying is editing the save file. If the bots are deleted at the end of the round. Then perhaps adding the bots to the save file before the round starts will allow you to play the game 1 round at a time. Or maybe it'll still block you.

The way I imagine it going. Right before you end the round you copy the save file. Specifically the bots. Then when you go and start a new round you hop back into the server lobby or main menu and paste the old character data over the new character data.

I think I found what you are looking for. But you'll probably need to use a hex editor.

How many bots were you hoping to have in your sub, just out of interest?

how did you miss the magic number while compiling?

Barotrauma/BarotraumaShared/SharedSource/GameSession/CrewManager.cs
line 26: public const int MaxCrewSize = 16;

ermagherd I feel like theres 4 different places where "Crew Size" or "Bot Count" exist. Why this one!?! Ah well, I hope to the gods it works, thanks.

and as for the amount of bots, I wanted somewhere in the realm of 10-15

There are like a handful of spots where something along the lines of "Bot Count" exist, some do require an edit and recompile. It seems there are a few spots where you have to make sure all are above the default amount.
