I killed a random civilian in testing that spawned (during Day 0). I was using week one, the required Bandits NPC mod, and had Dynamic Body Shape mod enabled (I was doing some compatibility testing).

I Believe that this is an issue with Bandits NPC mod, so I'll make a discussion there too.

I came across this issue after disabling god mod and invisibility on the cheat menu

This is the stack trace:

Brain had outfit Farmer, and Program "Bandit" instead of a table with name,which seems weird.

the simplest patch solution I see to this issue would be to change the function Bandit.Can(zombie, capability) in shared/Bandit.lua:326 a little bit, from

function Bandit.Can(zombie, capability)
local brain = BanditBrain.Get(zombie)
if brain then
local capabilities = ZombiePrograms[brain.program.name].GetCapabilities()
if capabilities then
if capabilities[capability] then return true end
end
end
return false
end

To

function Bandit.Can(zombie, capability)
local brain = BanditBrain.Get(zombie)
if not brain then
return false
end
local program = brain.program
local capabilities
if type(program) == "table" then
capabilities = ZombiePrograms[brain.program.name].GetCapabilities()
elseif type(program) == "string" then
capabilities = ZombiePrograms[brain.program].GetCapabilities()
else
return false
end

if capabilities then
if capabilities[capability] then return true end
end

return false
end

This would check wether Brain is a single string or a table, and act accordingly. The best solution would be to find out Why brain returned a string instead of a table, but as a patch I believe this would suffice.

I do not believe that this is a compatiblity issue necesarilly, but I point out every mod im currently using.
