Zombie Behavior
Day vs Night
- Night: All zombies become runners (except walkers who speed up)
- Horde zombies: Always run regardless of time
Noise and Aggro
Zombies react to sound. Loud actions (mining, shooting, driving) attract zombies from 50+ blocks away. Silencers reduce aggro radius significantly.
Wandering Hordes
Random zombie groups wander across the map. If you're in their path, they'll attack. Stay inside or eliminate them quickly.
Headshots
Headshots deal 2× damage to all zombie types. Always aim for the head:
- Faster kills = less damage taken
- Ammo efficiency 2× better
- Some zombies (feral/radiated) require headshots to kill efficiently
