batchtools doesn't use the specified seed as the actual seed for jobs but instead adds it to job.id. For my experiments I needed to fix the seed for all jobs to make result comparison fair and easier to do. I added fix.seed argument for both problems and jobs so there's at least an option to reuse the same seed for all jobs. If you ignore fix.seed arguments, I believe the package behaves the same as it used to. Thanks!
