NPCs not following there set vision cone.

Hi I'm using Npc Spawn and BetterNpcs and im having trouble getting my Npcs to follow the vision cone setting, no matter what I seem to set them to they will detect players from any angle it seems and I cant figure out how to change it so they only target what's in front of them.

 "RoamRange": 10.0,
  "ChaseRange": 40.0,
  "SenseRange": 30.0,
  "ListenRange": 15.0,
  "DamageRange": -1.0,
  "ShortRange": 10.0,
  "AttackLengthMaxShortRangeScale": 2.0,
  "AttackRangeMultiplier": 1.5,
  "CheckVisionCone": true,
  "VisionCone": 115.0,
  "HostileTargetsOnly": false,
  "DisplaySashTargetsOnly": false,
  "IgnoreSafeZonePlayers": true,
  "IgnoreSleepingPlayers": true,
  "IgnoreWoundedPlayers": true,
  "NpcAttackMode": 2,
  "NpcSenseRange": 30.0,
  "NpcDamageScale": 1.0,

example or what I have some settings at, any help would be appreciated.

Hello, try to make Listen Range 15, and if you have the opportunity, you can also send a video so that I better understand exactly what you want to get and what you are getting, and the NpcSpawn preset.

Thank you for responding I eventually with enough trial and error got them to act the way I wanted, thanks for the support
