Is it every time, or only when first arriving to town (even if you've been there before, but walked far enough away for it to despawn)? Sometimes when first arriving to a city, NPCs spawn in at various times (if not all at once, like a big clump in the center of the Hub when you first start a New Game, etc.)

everytime at night only around 22:00 they start standing still out side the building and when it's 5:00 they stop and continue walking doing their own things. it might be in one of the mods in the collection? because I tried Project kathun no issues at all

Well that sounds pretty creepy lol

What town does this happen in? I'll go try it out and see what's happening. It could just be something dumb like there's not enough spaces to "sleep" in so they just kinda stand around until the new day begins.

Or, they don't have a decent enough AI package and might just need something to do when not working (ie. walk to the bar, which is most NPCs default non-work time routine)

I feel like it would be not enough spaces to sleep too because I sometimes saw "going home" as a job but they still standing still. mostly happen in Shek Kingdom area like squin and admag might be other places too but I forgor

Ah okay that makes sense. Yeah, I could probably put some additional beds lying around the Bar or homeless encampments like the Hub. It would make sense in the Shek region because they have quite a lot of people compared to available housing/beds.

The various abandoned buildings (the ones you buy to repair/live in) tend to have some sleeping bags on the floor for the homeless, but since UWE has like 100+ people in a town there's probably some towns that just need additional bedding. I haven't really noticed the random "Idle" people hanging around at night, probably should pay more attention when I roam around to spot other areas lol
