What is this?

• This is a simple addon that spawns NPCs on the map and makes them move to pre-set points. In case of danger, they can try to run away, hide, scream in horror or fight back. Sometimes they interact with each other. The list of events will be expanded. Can work without a NAV grid.
• Is it resource-intensive? - In most cases, it does not load the system, there are a number of parameters in the settings for optimization.

What NPCs are there out of the box?

• Citizen
• Taxi Driver (Dependency: [DV] Decent Vehicle - Basic AI)
• Racer (Dependency: [DV] Decent Vehicle - Basic AI)
• Thief
• Gangster
• Policeman
