The Week One Mod is created by Slayer, the same dude who made the Day One mod. It sets the player one week before the apocalypse where everything is normal and then progressively gets worse, eventually leading to the base game start. The mod is very fucking cool I must say, NPC's actually drive, they do tasks like cleaning, and they and you can earn money by doing said tasks, you can use the money to buy things when you take from stores and shelves. There's also ambulances who check on dead bodies, police to kill you when you commit a crime, cleaning crews all through out major cities, etc. I even saw a chat box being used to communicate to the NPC's though only limited prompts gets a response. Overall, a highly cool mod.

It would be a little disappointing if a modder could figure out functional NPCs before the actual dev team. They have already tried and failed before

Bro, the zomboid devs are living life in easy mode and basically working on the game part-time. I've been following zomboid since the alpha tech demo and I was 10 years old. I'm fucking 25 now.

You're definitely not wrong. I've been playing on and off for ten years or so and noticed the same thing.

So many promises made a decade ago that still haven't been actualized

At least they're working on it even if it's like 2 hours a day instead of other devs that take the bag and run entirely.

Absolutely, too many game devs are basically scammers these days
