I've come back to my safe house, (house I took over,) and the door I locked and barricaded is wide open and there are npcs in and running out of the house.

I had a house that had no stairs up to it, only 1 sheet rope for the window and I was gone for a few minutes down the road to find 4 people in the house relaxing in it.

I have not seen any of them use a sheet rope in the game and the rope was hanging over a doorway. Either they were all rushing in the moment I left or the people somehow can now teleport to the 2nd floor XD

(Yes I used a sledgehammer on the only stairs)

A cool idea to fix this (if possible) is to make it so people cannot spawn in a house you've locked the doors too; or maybe theres a way to claim a house to prevent them. Although npcs can still break in through the windows of doors which would be a cool way to show they stole the house.

But it all depends if it can be coded. If not then I understand why it is as it is; even if its annoying. Luckily they don't spawn after the event hits though.

I barricaded my house with 4 planks on each and every opening, and i saw friendly npcs spawning inside. Not one of them carried anything that could be used for unbarricading, so i call ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ on this. Please only allow spawning inside or unbarricading if the npc spawn with necessary tools. That will lessen the chance, right now, every trip outside means some random people will squat after return...
