Bot units don't pick up artifacts and oil
aco4 opened this issue · comments
Describe the bug
Normally, units automatically pick up nearby artifacts and oil drums. This doesn't happen for units that belong to AI bots, like Cobra.
This can cause significant issues since artifacts and oil drums block the creation of new structures. On maps with little space, this can result in the inability to build essential base structures, like factories.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Start skirmish game with Cobra-Hard opponent
- Destroy their research facilities and factories as they are built
- Eventually, enough artifacts will accumulate
- See problem
Expected behavior
Bot units automatically pick up nearby artifacts and oil drums, like player units.

Your System:
- OS: Windows 11
- Game version: 4.4.2
Additional context
This applies to scavenger units too.
Indeed, all the bots need some development work and collecting artifacts should be a top priority to acquire when nearby.
I thought this was intentional as even getting near them should pick them up but enemy army waves can plow over them leaving them behind.
