I currently have ai.ignoreplayers true and +nav_disable true and scientists as well as animals do not move which is what i want. but the issue i have is scientists keep shooting when you get near them. I want to disable them from shooting. I have also tried ai.think false and its still not working. any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated

Try this plugin   https://umod.org/plugins/dont-target-me

anything besides just a plugin preventing them from shooting.?
