@BigBenji Not a bug, as of now there is not way to detect if a NPC is a law abiding citizen or a criminal creep. And seeing as we have about 50 NPCs, it would take some time to mark each one. Furthermore, we would have to find another way for them to react to shots fired etc.. We want NPCs to be treated as players, eg if you rob the local kiwi mart, NPCs near by will call 911. Some interesting NPC changes will be released upon V5 release, I will see if I can include something in that release, to have "criminal" NPCs react differently, maybe the DD and Bank Robbery NPC would spawn in another location if someone shoots at them, or near them?
