Hi! I have a question about the Project Zomboid lore, especially about the actions of the US-government during the first days of the Knox Infection and how they affected the everyday life of the ordinary Knox Country population. As far as I know, Knox Country has been set under quarantine since 3 days when you choose the earliest start date in game (which is July 9). Is it supposed that there has still been a somewhat normal life for the Knox Country population during those 3 days meaning that a lot of people were still working at their regular jobs? Or is the assumption that there was a complete shutdown and all people where told to stay at home (except for police officers or firefighters maybe)? Some occupations have a chance to spawn at an occupation-specific location. Examples are cooks who could spawn at restaurant kitchens or construction workers who could spawn at construction sides (there are further examples like this). This would suggest that some people still did their regular jobs during the 3 days of quarantine. Another explanation would be that those occupation-specific spawn points are more a result of Indie Stone's work in progress while the official idea is that people didn't went to work anymore. Thanks for any replies!
