how to increase zombies properly?

Recommended Posts

ok so I would like to increase the number of zombies that are on my server,I already edited the files.

zombie_territories.xml and events.xml and global.xml 

Remembering I'm doing a little Slot or solo server, but now there is no zombie on my server

Well, if you have none at all now, hopefully you took backups of those files before you edited them.  Restore the backups first and get it so you're back to where you were to begin with -- seeing some of them appear at least.

You should only be editing the territories if you are wanting them to appear in different locations, otherwise, all you have to do is increase the number of total that can spawn in the global file and then individually which ones you want more of in the events file.

If you still can't get it to work, post whatever edits you've done here and maybe we'll spot what the issue is.

zombie_territories.xml determines the positions of the zombies and the minimum and maximum that will spawn in each spot.

globals.xml will allow you to set a maximum server wide limit. If you have a large amount of players on the server and they're evenly spread out, you'll run out of zombies quickly so each zombie spawn will have less, so adjust this file appropriately.

events.xml control what zombies and how many of each can spawn in each group of zombies.

A misconfigured types.xml can cause zombies not to spawn, so use an online xml validator or restore the default file and start over.

Well I don't understand the server so much I started now but I played with the values a bit, like the server will be basically for me to play soon I would like a good amount of zombies, not to be so easy, for example to go to the military base and have about 30 zombies more or less this I want to pro server.I'll put the files here--https://www.mediafire.com/file/dcf3teuqpely2lq/XML.rar/file

no zombies on the server is one of two things, your types.xml file has an error  or  (and this is more likely as you said you changed the file) your zombies cap in your global isn't enough to cover your zombies on the server.

 

so for example you want military zombies to be twice or three times the amount currently in the game:   you increase them as you wish by the MAX MIN in the territories file.

my before max/min (top 10 lines)

        <zone name="InfectedArmy" smin="4" smax="8" dmin="10" dmax="15" x="6424.6" z="8152.22" r="100"/>
        <zone name="InfectedArmy" smin="4" smax="8" dmin="4" dmax="8" x="7841.11" z="5863.65" r="100"/>
        <zone name="InfectedArmy" smin="4" smax="8" dmin="10" dmax="15" x="5001.79" z="2122.94" r="150"/>
        <zone name="InfectedArmy" smin="4" smax="8" dmin="10" dmax="15" x="4432.25" z="6703.5" r="80"/>
        <zone name="InfectedArmy" smin="4" smax="8" dmin="10" dmax="15" x="9058.25" z="6628.59" r="160"/>
        <zone name="InfectedArmy" smin="4" smax="6" dmin="6" dmax="8" x="7671.73" z="5975.71" r="80"/>
        <zone name="InfectedArmy" smin="4" smax="8" dmin="4" dmax="8" x="5601.41" z="3781.37" r="120"/>
        <zone name="InfectedArmy" smin="4" smax="8" dmin="4" dmax="8" x="4466.79" z="4805.45" r="100"/>
        <zone name="InfectedArmy" smin="0" smax="0" dmin="6" dmax="8" x="8343.42" z="11199.8" r="100"/>
        <zone name="InfectedArmy" smin="4" smax="8" dmin="10" dmax="14" x="7888.33" z="9794.5" r="160"/>

 

my after max/min (top 10 lines)

       <zone name="InfectedArmy" smin="4" smax="8" dmin="12" dmax="25" x="6424.6" z="8152.22" r="100"/>
        <zone name="InfectedArmy" smin="4" smax="8" dmin="9" dmax="15" x="7841.11" z="5863.65" r="100"/>
        <zone name="InfectedArmy" smin="4" smax="8" dmin="12" dmax="25" x="5001.79" z="2122.94" r="150"/>
        <zone name="InfectedArmy" smin="4" smax="8" dmin="12" dmax="25" x="4432.25" z="6703.5" r="80"/>
        <zone name="InfectedArmy" smin="4" smax="8" dmin="12" dmax="25" x="9058.25" z="6628.59" r="160"/>
        <zone name="InfectedArmy" smin="4" smax="6" dmin="9" dmax="15" x="7671.73" z="5975.71" r="80"/>
        <zone name="InfectedArmy" smin="4" smax="8" dmin="9" dmax="15" x="5601.41" z="3781.37" r="120"/>
        <zone name="InfectedArmy" smin="4" smax="8" dmin="9" dmax="15" x="4466.79" z="4805.45" r="100"/>
        <zone name="InfectedArmy" smin="0" smax="0" dmin="9" dmax="15" x="8343.42" z="11199.8" r="100"/>
        <zone name="InfectedArmy" smin="4" smax="8" dmin="12" dmax="24" x="7888.33" z="9794.5" r="160"/>

 

and now comes the yucky part.    add all the dmax numbers up and jot that number down.

now add 10% more to the total (for chopper spawns etc)

that is the number for the zombie global max.

 

so mine is a total (with 10%) of 4614 +10%    so i made my global zombie max to 5000.

 

hope this helps
