Default npc factions

I'm trying to get my spawned roaming npc's and spawned npc's at monuments to fight each other. I have some scientists I've setup with kits as faction 2 and some bandits with kits as faction 1. They do everything correctly and fight each other when they encounter each other. I have npc's set to attack.

Problem is when for instance the bandits encounter standard scientists at monuments that are in the game by default they try and attack them, the default scientists dont seem to really care at all since they arent on a faction and the bandits endlessly circle the area while dropping and regaining agro.

And since spawned scientists and default scientists arent on the same faction the spawned ones kill the defaults ones. Is there anyway to get the default scientists onto faction 2? Not sure if this is possible.

Thanks for the help!

Pretty sure it will work, but it kinda ruins the fantasy of the bandits and scientists fighting if some of them just ingore each other. Hopefully it gets overlooked by anyone who happens to see it in game. XD

I will just set them to ignore. Thank you for the help.

Getting rid of them would definitely be the best option, then I can just replace them with botspawns.

The main places would be anywhere that vanilla spawns appear outside like train yard for example.

For now I have just disabled the factions.
