First off, incredible work! I can't overstate how excited I've been about this mod and your continued development!

I've been tweaking some of the difficulty, and I noticed something in the way shoves are handled. It seems if bandits are within range, they will turn to face/shove other bandits when they die (briefly registered as a hostile during the death sequence?).

This is more visible when shooting into an oncoming wave of bandits. They regularly stop, shove, and rearrange themselves when a bandit near them gets shot dead.

I disabled shoving (too punishing for my playgroup), and now bandit waves advance much smoother.

Maybe this issue isn't as common with other clients/servers, but I did want to bring it to your attention.
