Zombie Spawn Idea

Recommended Posts

Zombies should not spawn off players at all. They should be set there from the popualtion of the city. So if there was 40,000 poeple in that town and you are the last 250 in the world. Then they shoud just have 39750 zombies left in the city and near by area. When the zombie count hits say 100 then spawn the 39650 more zombies into the edges of the maps and make them walk back into the citys . Them spawning off the players location sucks.

Sure, having 40000 zombies walking around will make the game really smooth. It's a bad idea, the zombies spawn the way they do for a reason.

It takes too much server computing power to maintain that many zombies. But I do wish that they wouldnt spawn in specific sites so you can't use distance from spawn point to see if there's a player around or if you spawned them

I think the answer to Z's as player flags is increasing the distance that triggers/removes spawns, I think after optimization or via an optimized standalone engine this would deff be possible.
