Description:

Makes zombies seek indoors and go inactive at day time.

The zombies seek to go indoors in the morning, and wake up at night, based on time of year.

If you hit a zombie that is docile, it will temporarily wake up along with nearby zombies.

This was inspired by the zombies in the show "Kingdom", and I used a good portion of code in FearTheRain by Stephanus van Zyl AKA Viceroy.

I am trying to consolidate helping people by filtering them into my discord server for support. https://discord.gg/UU5aXuwGH6

Updates

• change the way zombies are initialized. Because it seems zombies are created before buildings they were failing checks for closest building and being set to docile outside.

• modify night routine to encourage more zombies to go outside. Improve logic that gives zombies commands.
• various code comment documentation updates

• add function to calculate if a target is too far
