Friendly Fire causes NPC's to freeze up
So I have came across what seems to be a bug; where if one of your group survivors hits or shoots another one of your group members by accident, that member freezes up entirely and doesn't move or shoot. Will still interact and pickup objects that are given, just doesn't actually move around. As if it's attempting to initiate 'healing' or something but can't because the NPC isnt damaged.

What has seemed to fix this issue is if a zed grapples the NPC he/she breaks free and begins to fight back; then goes back to following/looting or whatever.

I am on version 41.50 since the recent update made this mod even buggier; and I have very few other mods loaded in my game (I have also tried JUST this mod, superb survivors and the AIZ Enhanced maps ONLY and still manage to come across the same issue)

My advice would be to include a debug option to 'Reset AI' for when NPC's freeze up or are stuck in a command loop as stated by somebody else that ran into a similar issue.

And no, I do not have any error reports itself.
