Honestly wouldn't be playing anymore if it wasn't for this mod. I play on low outdoor pop and high indoor pop so the second the indoor zombies spawn when nearing a house was so immersion breaking. This mod also seemed to fix Raven Creek for me as zombies weren't spawning indoors before.
Thank you so much for sharing this mod. :)

There's a ported version of this mod to B42 on the workshop. Feel free to use that- from the looks of things it actually seems like all of the building spawning code might be the same (A shame!). I'll still have to dedicate time to confirm all this though and try to fix the reports on the spawning into zombies...

I'm not sure. I'd prefer to wait until B42 officially releases because the implementation of this mod could drastically change version to version. There were reports of zombies spawning in with you in spawn areas or zombies infinitely spawning- but I really just could not end up tracking down the exact causes. I'll have to dedicate some time reading the code again and trying to figure it all out, which is why I will (most likely) be waiting for the official B42 release.

Don't mean to be an ass, but I am wondering if you'll update this for B42? Even if the zombies like to spawn in your own house at the start because of the goofy spawning method, I wouldn't mind. It's insane how much of a difference this mod makes when playing in high population towns and I'd love to have it back.

So this was working great for me. I just made a new lumberjack in Rosewood with the conspicuous perk (notnsure if it's relevent). But now any time zombies spawn in a house, rhen keep respawning in front of my eyes over and over every time I kill a zombie and rush right for me.

I’ll update the mod sometime this week. I need to investigate some of the issues that were reported in B41 and see if I can do anything about them in B42.

I transferred the mod from b41 to b42 and it works correctly but I can't upload it for some reason, how can I contact you so you can update it?

Damn, well thanks checking anyway.

Did some testing today: The old spawning mechanics are still in the unstable B42. You still need to have line of sight into a building and be close enough for it to finally spawn in zombies on the inside. Zombie distribution seems to have been overhauled, though, purely by going off of vibes. I'm going to hold off for a stable release before I decide to pop open the code though and read through.

A shame. Was really hoping they would address this issue. Maybe they'll address it in the stable release.

I’m not sure. I’m hoping they did fix it, or if they haven’t, that they’ll fix it for the stable release. I’ll test building spawn behavior sometime and report back when I do.

Is this fixed in B42?

somehow enable this mod forme would lead some of spawn points got swarmed by zeds

I downloaded this and unfortunately it causes lag on my machine in LV due to high zed spawn rates that apparently my mac can't handle. However, when i turn the mod off in the settings menu, now i have no zombies spawning inside at all. Which honestly is kind of a blessing in LV but it feels like cheating haha

zombie spawn to lot even in the oustides, making it impossible to have a good game... its like you kill a horde of 12 zombies walk in the quarter and its one more hord of 20 zombies just in the door of your home

bad performance hit . if u walk around in LV zombies will spawn in the big buildings and the whole game will lag because 200+ zombies are spawned in a building . they probably coded it this way so the game will be more manageable in high dense areas. Sadly have to remove from my server

Works in metro maps?

I noticed that everytime i have this mod downloaded, alot more zombies will spawn, so watchout people who like to use guns or like to scream in public bathrooms as a prank.

I have an issue with this mod, running a server with zombie respawning turned on and this mod enabled, zombies will respawn in my safehouse, inside the room I'm standing in (this has happened like 3 times by now, it's a miracle my character is still alive lol), I just tried uninstalling this mod from the server, and no zombies spawned in my safehouse this time when I logged in.
(PS: I am removed from my faction and safehouse and have to claim it again every time I log out and in again, any idea what's causing this? (It probably doesn't have anything to do with the mod I'm guessing, but it's still a little annoying and I'm desperate for answers!))

I found a better version of this mod - "Wake Them Up".

DESCRIPTION
Spawn building zombies fast optimizing performances costs.
This mod is a replacement to Ducks' Zombie Building Spawn Fix.
It adds the same improvement but with less drawbacks, see details below.

Лучший мод в мире

Спасибо, хочу попробывать

Also, is there a way to see the flag "already spawned" and skip these buildings when adding this mod to an existing save?

Please, please please. You need to make the mod detect a player inside the building and NOT spawn zombies in said building.

I've had to start playthroughs with this disabled because it will spawn me in with 3-5 zeds already grabbing me. Is there any way to make sure they aren't spawning on top of you before you even load in?

Thanks!!

nope (or so i've been told)

Will this work with the zombie fix found here: https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2896255721&searchtext=zombie+fix ?

Absolute must have mod. Its a ♥♥♥♥ mechanic. Zombies literaly dont exist in buildings until you go in. I lost 3 month char when i went inside a shed after breaking down door and thinking that if there was zombies in there they would hear me harassing the handle and then smashing the door with fire axe. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.

Thank you so much. I found it to be so annoying that i could blast off a shotgun in the middle of rosewood until they stopped coming only to find there are still zombies all over the place unless i walked around the entire town while shooting. I think this mod will fix the problem.

This mod is spawning zombies inside the STARTER house, when using the Westpoint Gated Community map. Like, right next to the character in the first 5 seconds of game.

Does this mod re-enable zombie respawn even if you've disabled that for your playthrough? I've suddenly had zombies appearing inside my base despite me having respawn and player construction damage set to off (i.e. so there's no way they should be in there as they shouldn't be able to respawn in and they can't break in).

yeah zombies popping in craps out my game all the time I just want this mechanic to stop completely

im begging you, make an alternate mod that disables zombie buildings spawn COMPLETELY

should this be loaded before or after map mods? or does it not make a difference

If anyone has problems with starting a game and being immediately eaten by zombies before you can even move, which is a side effect of this mod, you can solve it by giving yourself 1 hour of spawn leeway with the Start Apocalypse Time mod.

Great synergy between the two mods.

I actually need such a bug to occur to use the Backrooms mod properly, so that's a convenient mistake.

As The Professor said, zombies will spawn in houses where YOU spawn and there is nothing you can do, just die and make another game, it really sucks so i will wait until this mod really works and the player spawn house doesn't spawn zombies.

Unfortunately, this mod sometimes causes you to spawn zombies in the same room you spawn.

Thank you for this mod.

Opened a garage after clearing a horde with a machine gun. Should of heard something, banging, moaning, anything. Boom! 5 zombies in my ass and i'm swarmed.

I was reading a book and watching some TV when a zombie suddenly spawned in the middle of the living room, right next to t he couch I was sitting on. I didn't get hurt but it's safe to say I'll be keeping this off for the time being

And it's fixed to work in multiplayer!

Everyone, there is a fixed version of this mod called "Wake Them Up". Zombies spawning in your spawn is fixed, and it only spawns zombies for one building per cycle, fixing the performance impact of this mod.

Is this compatible with Zombie Fix? https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2896255721&searchtext=zombie+fix

@world's best protoss player & @tchernobill thank you both for your work to improve the game!

@deknadu you must choose

Is it compatible with the Wake Them Up mod?
or must choose one or the other

Hi, can you replace your version with this one ?
I explain everything in the description.
Have fun out there and tell me when it's done/refused please .

This mod has issues, but it actually helped my potato computer. Thx.

1- Server restarts and zombies just respawn inside buildings...
2- Spawns now include zombies, good luck if you are like me and run runners and have half your team being unable to spawn in high pop
