Please Don't Feed The Zombies

I don't think the mod is working as intended
I've tested this mod and i'm sad to say it's not what I expected, as the description says, corpses in a concentrated area draws in more zombies, but that is not true entirely. (I turned off hordes and made the timers for the hordes and everything except "corpse feed time" very big just in case it was an option's fault but it is not)

I have a singleplayer world where my base is in a fenced in garage area in Muldraugh and I killed like 150-200 zombies at my gate which yes, did trigger zombies to continuously come because of the large amount of corpses, but, they did not come to feed on the corpses at my gate. I locked myself in a garage after I killed like a wave of zomboids and they didn't know I was there but they kept coming and circling my garage door as if knowing I was there and ignoring the hundreds of corpses at my gate (the compound is pretty big and there is only 1 entrance). I've killed atleast 500-600 zomboids that somehow know where I am at all times even if I leave my base area because of this mod, it's like the mod spawns zombies even though i disabled everything related to hordes spawning and the vanilla game respawn wise. Correct me if i'm wrong but aren't the zombies supposed to feed only if they SEE the corpse with these settings?

I've also gotten a car to look around my base and there were a lot of hordes that literally didn't even care about the corpses, the mod just spawns a lot of random zombies that have no place in being there.

I've tested this during multiple playthroughs and it seems like after a certain number of zombie bodies, that is not accurate because I've changed it in the settings, zombies just spawn to follow you and kill you with wallhacks and ignore everything else.

I've definitely seen them feeding, but yeah it really does feel like it spawns zombies when zombie spawns are turned off.

Another huge issue is that feeding zombies have ridiculously high sight range, they can spot you from beyond your vision range even if you're sneaking & have high level. This becomes a huge issue fast when you killed a ton of zombies and more came to feed on them, and now you have to sneak past them because there's simply too many.
