Static NPCs on, dynamic off.
Started with sheltered background.
Nearby NPCs started with no weapon (wielding an “Item missing”), tried bashing zombie dogs with a soldering iron and died to a zombear.
Their corpse had 5 cans of energy drink, 4 Computer Worlds (gave one to my survivor before dying) and 4 soldering irons. Food, gear and random trash (a file) was not multiplied.
The NPC threw or dropped 3 throwing axes while fighting the first zombie dog, probably in melee as they all landed on the same tile.
Before the NPC managed to die, I went up and down nearby stairs a few times.
