This is a resource designed spawn the undead wherever a player roams outside. It works without any configuration or scripting skills needed, but there are a few option for gamemode designers to use.

Features

Skins: There have been many contributed skins that change peds to look like the rotting/gory undead

Semi-intelligence: Zombies are fairly mindless by nature, but they do have basic motor skills like being able to jump over objects, climb ledges, walk around corners, and break through barriers

Behaviour: Zombies endlessly attack any player or ped that isn't one of them, then feast briefly on the remains before wandering off in search of more flesh

Streaming: By default, anywhere a player goes outside will have a fairly dense population of zombies. this is done by deleting zombies that far away and spawning new ones within a close radius of the players.

Gamemode/Script integration: This script provides several functions and events to allow other resources to see and control the zombies

Helmet Zombies: zombie + helmet = big trouble! no headshots against these flesheaters.

Server Events

onZombieSpawn

This triggers when a Zombie is streamed in automatically. It is a cancellable event, so scripts and gamemode can prevent zombies from spawning in certain areas.

Parameters

float x, float y, float z
  • x: The X coord of the spawn location
  • y: The Y coord of the spawn location
  • z: The Z coord of the spawn location

Source

The source of this event is the Zombie that is spawning

onZombieWasted

This triggers when a zombie is killed. Parameters

element attacker, float weapon, float bodypart
  • attacker: The Element that killed the zombie
  • weapon: The weapon id used to kill the zombie
  • bodypart: The bodypart id that was hit to kill the zombie

Source

createZombie

This function spawns a zombie ingame, will return the zombie element, or false if there was a problem.
