Can’t it be fixed by implementing a no_NPC_Gen tag to it or something?

There is a special MI to prevent items from spawning on NPCs, it just doesn’t work very well.

I encountered a similar bug with an NPC asking me to find their dog in a house 5 map tiles away, before zombies had even spawned so it was simple in and out, the dog even ran up to me as soon as I approached the house. I bring the little furball back to its owner who thanks me, then the dog begins attacking the npc.

Also: NPCs don’t use known unarmed skills.

Trading is broken.

NPCs will give you money they don’t have and then get negative money themselves. Things get real screwy after that.
