Hi,

After being defeated for 10 times by different foes I noticed npcs don't loot any money or other valuable stuff like medkits and resources. Of course hungry bandits loot your food, and wildlife can eat you alive while you lie there unconscious, but why is nobody interested in my money or weapons or armor to "sell" later, after all I'm doing the same - robbing random unconscious people blind to earn my fortune.

I think npcs should do the same, because right now defeat doesn't feel like I lost something valuable - on the contrary, my defense and toughness parameters grow, I lie around in the dust for some time and that's all.

they can not loot your money as it's not a physical object to take.
though they should be taking objects they find valuable or useful to them. so that part is indeed bugged.

Yes, I noticed hungry bandits don't loot raw meat from creatures they attack, which is kind of strange - why attack those in the first place, risking your life, creature carcasses don't yield any cooked food. Hungry bandits also don't loot raw meat from my squad, so if you keep your meat raw and cook it only in small amounts to eat immediately, you will never loose any dried meat to hungry bandits. (I gotta test this with other kinds of raw materials used in cooking like cacti, but something tells me hungry bandits are not interested in those too).

I think a hungry person 'should' loot all the cooked food as well as uncooked. They should also be able to loot those from any unlocked containers on your outpost they gain access to.
