they all kill as often as they can.

once the killer strikes, they go back to work / home for the day, and go out murdering the next day.

but what if they are unemployed and can they move jobs and start killing there?

Doesn't seem to be a maximum.

AFAIK civs can't have their jobs changed, and "unemployed" NPCs even have an employment contract in their personal files.

The "employed by:" part is blank, and the "job title:" says "unemployed".

this leads me to believe that unemployed civs are still functionally employed in the code.

All of them, I guess. One a day. It only switches to a different killer when you catch them.

But I suspect the clues get more obvious with each victim (it was my impression, not certain about that - and I hope it's wrong as accumulation should be enough).

I'm still testing this, Currently the body count in my 2x2 city population 73 is up to 24. Most people in the singular apartment building are dead now, so if further kills are going to occur it's going to have to start happening in the streets.

Takes awhile for each murder though. Somewhere between 1 and 3-4 days.

Ritual killer. I was very tempted to reset after the first murder when it wasn't a coworker killer, since I was curious what'd happen when they exhaust the list of coworkers, like, would they go for other people too? Or just stop killing entirely?

But then I figured it's better to go for the long test first, then do a shorter coworker test having confirmed the longer game first.

Thats my thoughts exactly. You can always start another save with the same city.

four: Stalker/Valentine. Leave heart shaped lipstick drawings around their victims.
Corpo/Coworker rage. Leaves business cards.
Ritual/red gum. Draws ritual circles around their victims.
Generation/toy car. The leave behind a toy car.

All four have their own messages they write on walls.
