I know dumb (or no?) way: just kill that bastard, who stole your artefact and PROFIT! But this thing is only sometimes can work very well, I guess..

А смысл? С чего бы вдруг дары Зоны (то есть артефакты) только для игрока? Где дух конкуренции, чёрт тебя дери?

Does the NPC have an animation with a detector when searching for artifacts? I've never seen them behind this process)

no, from what i seen, they go near a anomaly field and announce on the pda that they got a artifact

And... What`s the problem, exactly, to stash some enemy group`s jacket, mosin and balaclava, when someone tells about founded artifact in chat?

npc's can take artifacts without being near them, making the player have to have way more of a pain in the *** to get them, so this helps.

Well, if you want, you can kill the stalker that got the artifact before you, and loot him. If he's allied, you can just disguise yourself.

While I'm all about variety inside the modding community, this mod makes as if the npc's exists just for being killed and looted by the player, which is against the realism and immersion that Anomaly tries to bring to the table.

GabeCPB0, I’ve replied to you on my other mod comments so... it may look like dumbing down the NPCs, I suppose not many players play on higher difficulties, like I said, use this mod to balance things out on hardcore or ironman mode run... enjoy mate!

In that, you're absolutely right. Everyone should choose the Stalker experience they enjoy the most. Perhaps the greatest thing in the Anomaly community is the freedom It gives the player to customize its own game to its own parameters.

I may not like it, but all mods are welcome!

I'm not gonna lie. I'm not getting this mod because I hate NPC's stealing artifacts; they're doing me a favor by dragging it out of anomalies and delivering it to me at gunpoint. I'm getting this mod because NPC's getting artifacts makes farming artifacts way too easy.

No worries mate! So many combinations to play Anomaly, you be spoilt for choice!
It’s been sand box free play, challenging for legendary ranks, enjoying the sights, never looked back to other modes for me mate!

What annoys me is that NPCs can just walk straight through a gravitational anomaly, burner, fuzz or chemical pool without taking any damage whatsoever. I can't count how many time i was carefully walking through the Molten Lada at the Garbage's Vehicle Graveyard only for some immortal Ecologist to just walks straight into it and grab the artifact with no problem.
So this mod "fix" that for me. Thanks.

It would be cool if you could put garbage artifacts in containers
