[B42] Knox Event Expanded NPC mod [alpha v0.3.14-1]
A question about LV checkpoint mechanics
I just tried out the mod and got a nice road-trip with my character's wife to the place, from Riverside to LV. It was a looong road I must say, stil have a feeling that I played a different game. Somehow I managed to drive right through the checkpoint and nobody shot me because soldiers were too busy shooting zeds. As I now understand, there's probably a script that deletes any zombies that go beyond the gate, though I don't really know how this system works, but I'm very interested in it, because I managed not only to pass the gate without being shot, and even made a safehouse right below the gates on the south, inside stor-a-max armory. It seems to me that if the player is located in the render distance of soldiers, then either nothing will happen or they will see events that led to Louisville downfall themselves. Even since I read the radio broadcast, I wanted to see this nightmareish situation in-game, but sadly there's no npcs for now.

Already wrote too much, so my question is: Do I have to wait for morning of 14th of July? Since this is when gunshots actually attracted zombies from West-Point and everything went south. Or is it not done yet, and soldiers will be alive as long as I stay here?
