LivingZone NON STOPE 24/7/365 addon - S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Anomaly mod for S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat

this is another very nice addon!! thank you! what value for the npc spawn? i need to change the mutants spawn too?

This is the readme traslated in english:

3. Good health to all! Surely you have already come across the fact that after mowing all the passive living creatures at locations, you were left alone for long hours of waiting, and after how God sends. According to anyone, they noticed that all locations are 70-80% inhabited by monsters only .. And now bingo! Especially for you, I diluted this boring atmosphere with the fact that by adding a script to the script, I added spawn points to the NPCs + crossed all this with an improved simulation from Skely! Now, after the new game, the following awaits you! At all locations, life boils boiling hot! Now, in the area of ​​any den, you will notice either a hunt for wild animals, or just a hot skirmish of two or more groups! The study of the zone by groups of stalkers did not go away, but it only improved! Now the resettlement has become thicker and more diverse, for example, passing by the location “Technological Cemetery” - you can notice not one battle from different groups, but several - moreover, the battles go parallel to each other (regarding relations) .. By the way, the Stalkers are at war with the bandits, while Duty cuts Freedom, and that keeps defense or vice versa + wild animals ooohh all interfere in it ..... In general, outside the main spawn on smarts, third-party spawns will also pass - in a different region from them! Also, at each location there will be crooks from other locations, moreover from distant and not from neighboring ones as it was before. By default, for the NPC spawn, the main stalker bases + a couple of points for each group were allocated, or some only have a base at all. I used the smart of the den for an additional sortie of stalkers i.e. there can be three outcomes on these smarts: 1) animals will appear there, 2) stalkers will appear there, 3) extraneous forces will overcome this point!
=====================
4. The installation procedure should be as follows:
Installation:
1. Extract the contents of the archive into the game folder.
2. To play. ATTENTION!! First, in the options you need to reduce the spawn coefficients. Further, at the start of a new game, a regular spawn of everything that may be will happen and your hardware will not be absolutely thrilled about it! Further, the NPCs will begin to fire on their enemies to defeat, and natural selection will take place in the same way. After that, the spawn will begin to pass from scratch and the load on the iron should be standard because the number of spawning units remains the same but with a random outcome of everything. This is my Alpha version of the edit, with the exception of the improved simulation from Skely (I just crossed it for a bunch as a complement to the edit itself). In the future, I will most likely populate the Northern locations and make a full-fledged version of this edit.
P.S. That in the future the computer does not smoke, from overloading the NPCs, I advise you to do the following:
1. The recommended coefficient of spawn is 0.5 or less, this applies to spawn npc from standard smarts and bases (the main active life will be due to additional editing from Skely, and not from standard npc).
2. The radius of visibility of the NPC is desirable no more than 250m (more will already drip onto the processor resource). By default it costs 2000m but it can be fixed in the alife.ltx file - switch_distance = 2000; meters.

Someone play the addon then give feedback to me plz. Would do it myself but i need to reinstall the game first.

I waited 30 minutes or so in the Cordon and now i am at the Garbage but seems that there are still a lot of npc/mutant and i can hear the conflict all around me, is that normal? i thought after the first spawn there will be the same number of npcs as in the Anomaly Vanilla...is that right?

I really want to try this mod out because the northern areas (CoP areas) are dead as ****, but, I'm on my 10th day of my ironman run and I really don't want to start over again.

Can someone pitch in if this is worth it?

This can't be good on save games, on the long terms... are you sure this will work fine?

is there a way to reduce the number of npcs or maybe the spawn rate/time? The mod is great but i feel the zone too much war-ish now

I installed your mod and continued playing the game I was already in, no new game. The mod is working ok. The Zone is full of people and monsters. I haven't change the spawn rates either, default settings.
Maybe I will change them if the spawns keep coming in big numbers.

Is there a toned down version of this that's mainly just for mutants? Felt like the zone lacks in mutant spawns would like there to be 2 to 3 times the mutants.

I Like The Idea of the mod,
But there is no way to avoid the Chaos at each new Game ?

Lot of Crash since I installed this Mod,
I also use lot of other mods
But Problems appears after installing this one.

stack trace:

is new game required or recommended?

The most Chad mod title I've ever seen

For anyone who is curious about what the mod offers:
High tense and constant action, in Vanilla Anomaly you would find maybe a couple enemies and mutants strewn about empty maps and long intermissions when running between point A to point B

Game feels much more alive like Clear Sky, every part of the zone can and will be occupied with stalkers, or mutants, places feel much more lively
Dynamic Faction Relations is used to its full potential with this mod included, now the relations don't wait for you to change them, stalkers themselves are getting into brutal conflicts with each other, and you will see the power struggle between certain factions.

All in all the best mod and I would go as far as to say Anomaly NEEDS this mod
Game feels less of a boring playground and feels like the zone makes its own decisions with out you, you now feel more like a stalker in the wild west that is the zone. yes its true it could happen in Anomaly but stalkers would rarely ever interact with the world around them, never taking territory or defending it. Now they do, so you will see alife at its fullest. A mod you will need to staple to your collection. Props to the mod dev
As for problems starting a new game, wait a bit depending on your specs (about 5-10 minutes for me, could be longer or shorter) for the new zoners to settle in. Have fun

also mod likes to crash whenever i try to start in great swamps, or zaton.

Does it work with the Warfare option enabled in the startout?
Whenever I start with Warfare enabled, it doesnt seem to work properly. (-> all factions are enemies to each other, npcs dont spawn in)

Maybe its meant to be like this i dont know, never found anyone with the same issue

Is this work with newest update ?

I'm running a fresh install with no other modifications. Having intermittent crashing, plus other issues.

Mutant spawn = 0.25
Stalkers = 0.5
Exclusion radius = 50

Just now I was unable to save the game. Saving at bonfire did nothing. Tried to save using F5 instead and it crashed. Prior to this happening mutant harvesting and eating/drinking animation stopped working properly.

I'm running the latest Anomaly patch hotfix 8. No crashing or issues before installing this mod. Not sure what to do.
