I have 3 big ones and 4 small in my current save. My stored water just sits there too. I just wanted to use up the garbage bags and get some carpentry xp really. 3 really is enough, and could probably survive with just one or two if properly rationed.

Should get the garbage bags and make a few rain collector barrels. Once they're out, say 5 of them (overkill unless you're farming), drinking water becomes a non-issue.

That's called feature creep and every studio suffers from it at some point. It wouldn't be the best way to go because the developers would have to basically rewrite NPCs every time something major was added which a huge net loss of development time. I mean huge. The cooking overhaul is a major feature. Could you imagine programming your NPCs to use the old system and then having to re-code them to use the new system? It's a net waste of work. A huge net waste of work.

I rather think NPCs won't arrive until the game is pretty much feature complete. They have to code NPCs such that they interact with all intended features and they can't know that until they're done adding new features. It's incredibly complicated to write an AI in the first place; it's a 5x more complicated to add new features in later and have them work properly with everything else. Much easier to know what features NPCs will need to interact with then code them accordingly; not add NPCs then later add all the features they'll need to use and code for them later.

I also have the refrigerator bug that continues running after the power shuts off. It's in a 2 story house at this spot: http://pzmap.crash-override.net/#0.4975411491155223,0.22149557371594608,243.10379849685154 This is version 25c. Also, I've been eating the same 1/4 piece of cooked chicken 90% of the time. It's the endless chicken leg. I really mean it - the *same* chicken that I cooked on day 1. Also, to OP, nice base - mine looks like a peasant's hovel comparatively; however, I will never die in my current situation either so I've grown bored with it.
