๐ค What's new in Reborn?
- โก Performance optimized: Pathfinding calls massively optimized for smoother gameplay
- ๐ Zombie Awareness fused: Sensory system overhauled โ zombies can smell blood, hear block breaking and gunshots. No more hiding behind a wall and being safe!
- ๐ง 10 specialized zombie types: Each with unique AI and weapons
- ๐ฎ Fully customizable difficulty: Control zombie stats, spawn rates, blood moon chance, day-by-day progression through in-game GUI or JSON editing โ define your own 100-day apocalypse
- ๐ง Built-in preset manager: One-click switch between "Global Default", "Initial Default", "Disabled" presets, plus export/import your own configs

- ๐ Multiplayer friendly: Based on the difficulty level system determined by players' individual survival days, both new and experienced players can have their own pace
๐ฎ How smart are zombies?
๐งฑ They break your base!
Zombies detect you behind walls and dig right through!
- Builder โ breaks walls, paves paths, builds bridges, clears overhead blocks, even builds over water
- Miner โ smart digging, prioritizes blocks between them and you
๐ก๏ธ They use shields!
Shield zombies block frontal attacks โ use an axe to break their guard! ๐ฅ
๐น They use ranged weapons!
- Bow Attacker โ shoots arrows from range
- Crossbow Attacker โ uses crossbows (Piglins holding crossbows automatically become this type)
- Musket Gunner โ requires Musket Mod, devastating ranged firepower ๐ซ
๐ Super sensing!
With enhanced_sense enabled, zombies can:
- Smell your blood from 64 blocks away ๐ฉธ
- Feel block vibrations from 16 blocks
- Hear gunshots from 64 blocks (silencers reduce to 16 blocks) ๐
๐๏ธ They build bridges!
Gap in the way? Builder zombies will bridge it themselves โ even over water!
๐ They swim!
With swimming probability enabled, zombies can chase you through water. Swimming zombies won't convert to drowned (protection mechanic).

- Spartan Weaponry bows and shields are supported; crossbows are not (same as vanilla MC)
