I will look into your problem when I am done taking my test on Monday. I'll see about getting a bot running right now to pinpoint the issue are are having, but I can't promise a real fix until I am done with my college test.
EDIT: I am running black salamanders right now, not having any trouble whatsoever. I think the problem was that we weren't making checking traps a top priority, but rather made them get checked AFTER all traps have been setup. I changed the ordering of those. I'll be pushing an update either tonight or tomorrow with this fix, and you can let me know if that helped anything or not.
