Barotrauma has a unique 'Traitor' mechanic that gives a random player various goals to hinder the mission, sabotage other players, or cause mayhem in general. This mechanic adds depth to the game, requiring players to watch for traitorous activities. Players should also consider adding the karma system so that players who are not traitors are penalized for behaving like one. This is commonly done on public servers since players have less control over who joins.
Note: Traitor settings can only be managed by server admins or players with certain permissions.
1. Join the server as an admin. Learn how to admin here.
2. Under Gamemode Settings, adjust the Traitor probability to higher than zero.
3. Set the Maximum Danger Level and Minimum players for potential traitors.
4. Press the Start button.
