Oh my god, the colors and detail.. I thought Stalker anomaly was beautiful but you showed me this and proved me wrong. (And a lil' side note, do not try the invictis (For the love of god I can't spell it right xD) run, it's literally the word suicide for you character.

And a tip, if you have Dynamic factions on, do both the brain scorcher and miracle machine, this should (from my experience) make loners neutral or friends with mercenaries yet I don't know if it's going to work all the time, (both require the calibrated psy-helmet or you wont be able to get to the miracle machines' little brain thing before falling like you missed a step on the stairs) Hope this helps!

Hey, thinking about the AI and it's unwillingness to shoot at you, I remember there being an old mod that affected the vision of the NPCs. I never used it, but I think someone said it made his NPCs act similar to this. Check and see if Grok has any mods in his list that affect NPC vision. And yes, Stalker is basically a huge set of jingling keys, all competing for our attention while it tried to shoot our balls off.
