Cannot properly kill NPCs?
Basically I have this annoying bug where I cannot kill anyone in the game. First, I tried killing Mud for being obnoxiously annoying outside of the Old Camp, but whenever I was about to impale them with a sword, he just instantly pops back up and stands like he's okay. I can put down him, but never cannot properly kill him/execute him so he stays dead.

I assumed Mud was an immortal character for some reason, so I moved on and ignored that problem. Later on in the game tho, I walked into a trap with Grim and his Diggers trying to kill me for not paying for protection. The problem is, I cannot even kill those guys!
So basically every time I knock them down, I have to just leave them be, because I cannot finish them off.

I've heard that the only workaround for this is by killing them with a bow, which I have not yet found, or by magic, which I assume isn't the best choice for someone going into Strength.

Is there a way to get rid of this problem?

I fixed it.
You basically have to download an older 1.0 patch instead of the 1.8 that I had and it will fix the problem.

The problem was essentially enemies completely ignoring your deathblow animation and immediately getting back up right after they got downed.

After the patch they finally lay down for couple of seconds before getting back up and the animation fully works

Why such a bug has not been reported before ? Sounds like 1.8 is not playable ?

I actually googled the issue before finding out what to do and there were people already reporting this issue few years ago, like 2016 etc.
From what I understand, the mod has been made by Russian modders who may not work on the mod anymore, because I doubt someone didn't report this issue in 3 years.

Either way, if you or anyone else is experiencing the same problem,
downloading the 1.0 version of the mod should solve it for you
without missing out on FPS or anything like that.
