This is a repost of a relative old post I did 9 days ago in the toolbox topic but It seem that it didn’t got any attention at all so I’m reposting it here.
A few months back I adopted the Modular Turrets and Salvaged Robots mods to update them for the latest CDDA updates, and I made the [Modular Turrets Remake](https://discourse.cataclysmdda.org/t/a-well-deserved-surgery-to-the-mod-modular-turrets-mod/22647) mod in the process. I hiatused the develoment of the rest of the mods I planned to make because I’ve to put in order a few things on my life and now I’m prepare to take this project again.
Currently I’m facing a problem with the next mod I want to create. I want to allow the player to repair civilian robots and use them in diferent ways, the problem is that I can’t figure out a way to programm the robots and enable the interaction to strap bags on them (like horses). I tried examining the tile where’s the active robot and nothing, I tried to move onto the tile where’s the active robot and only popups the option to deactive the robot.
I think the problem is that the code necessary to interact with robots in that way is hardcoded and not in the .json files.
Here’s a [folder](https://mega.nz/file/4To0iIoa#_1p_QDrL6Qr__sHw1lv0jUZ0s2JASi7Orv9Qj57gx-k) with the mod edited to show the problem more clearly, install the mod and read the file ISSUE.txt for understanding the problem.

Attaching bags is a pet interaction. Did you make robot your pet?

You’re kinda right but there’s no tag “PET” to enable pet interactions, I think it’s automatically given by others tags like “DOGFOOD”
