A advanced zombie mod 2
Small update 11 June 2022
+ Small fix to solve some desync issues with zombies
V2!
When adding options, I changed some mechanics and this version is will NOT provide the same experience as the Advanced Zombie mod 1
A Advanced zombie mod 1 does not have any major bugs and works, it won’t be updated, because some players might want to keep playing with that.
V2!
+ Added options
+ Added multiple speed levels (option mods)
+ Added easy compatability patching for other mods (comp mod, make a copy of this)
+ Reduced network traffic
+ Added a faster processing mode (now default) to reduce zombie skin pop-in
+ Fixed small miss-calculations on zombie STR and SPD evaluation
* Multiplayer tested: "Works on my machineâ„¢" guarantee
The required zombie settings: You must choose FAST SHAMBLERS!
Compatability: Does not work with any other zombies speed or health related mods.
Compatability: This will NOT work with A Advanced Zombie mod 1 or A harder zombie mod. This is the newest, best version of the "mod series"
A Advanced zombie mod 2. Adds faster and tougher zombies! Zombie toughness and speed is based on the zombie type and the location of the zombie (with a little bit of RNG).
The zombies are now more varied and the player has to observe the enemy before getting into a fight
The zombies which were more physically active in their past lives (sport, military, police etc.) will be tougher and faster.
Based on the location, zombies are also faster and tougher, as the zombies in crowded areas and towns got to eat more and are stronger.
Faster Zombies
Faster Zombies are slightly faster than fast shamblers and can catch up with a walking player character. There are 5 speed variations.
Faster zombies can be identified by how fast their animations are.
Tougher Zombies
Tougher zombies are zombies with more health. They will be up to 20x stronger than normal zombies. There are 14 toughness variations.
Tougher zombies can be identified by the zombie skin, the tougher the zombie, the darker the skin.
Recommended settings:
I enjoy playing with the default settings and "Z speed OPTION 2 A LIL FASTER" to make the zombies even faster.
You don’t need to change any settings, the defaults are fairly well balanced, keeping zombies harder in cities and keeping the special zombies, such as police and army harder as well, with a little bit of variation in zombie speed.
Changing settings:
I tried to add reasonable tooltips for the settings, any questions about the settings? Ask in the discussions for this workshop item.
The player could always outwalk the fast shamblers zombies in the normal game, but the sprinters were too annyoing. This adds more dynamics to zombies and makes fighting big groups harder. This also makes zombies in certain areas harder, providing the player with a dynamic range of zombie difficulity, that the player can evaluate during gameplay without on-screen texts (such as levels over zombie heads)
If advanced zombie mod was really that good, then why don’t they make advanced zombie mod 2?
