What's a Horde Night?

　　If you have played games like 7 days to die, you will know what's coming. Someday in the night, a big horde will appear around you, and track you down. Present you a big challenge to overcome.

What will happen?

　　At the right date and time, you will get a warnning that a Horde Night is coming, not long after, every players will get a big swarm approaching from all sides. Be prepared.

Can we custom the Horde Night?

　　Yes, there are 9 sandbox options for Horde Night customizations under "Advanced Zombie Options".

• HordeNight Starting Hour: At which hour would the HordeNight start.
• First HordeNight Day: At which day would the first HordeNight start. 0 means the spawn day, 1 means the day after the spawn day.
• HordeNight Frequency: How many days would a HordeNight start after one another. 1 means HordeNight every day.
• HordeNight Starting Zombie Counts: How many zombies would spawn at the first HordeNight.
• HordeNight Zombie Increments: How many more zombies would spawn in the next HordeNight after you survived one.
• HordeNight Zombie Limits: The maximal amount of zombies could spawn in a HordeNight.
• Random HordeNight Chance: The random chance to start a HordeNight, outside of the regular frequency. It will only happen after the first HordeNight and not the day where the regular HordeNight would happens. 0.0 means no random HordeNight, 1.0 means HordeNight everyday. Note: In MP, everyone get their own random horde night, someone could get a horde at a random night and others could just be in peace at that same night.
• HordeNight Spawn Distance: The maximal distance for a HordeNight zombie to spawn around players. Turn down the value if you don't see zombies spawning in the HordeNight.
• HordeNight Indicator: When it's on, there will be an icon on the top right of the screen when it's currently the horde night day. Note, random Horde Night will not be indicated by this way.

Can it run on multiplayer?

　　It should work on MP, but currently, the game has a hardcoded optimization system that removes newly spawn zombies when an area has too many zombies already. So although this mod work with MP, there is still some possibility that some Horde Night zombies will be removed by the game itself, so the Horde Night zombies number may not be what you set to be in MP, by just a small amount.

Will the zombies spawn in my house?

　　They will never spawn on tiles that considered "inside" , and they will never spawn in your viewing range. So as long as your base is closed in or near by, no zombies will spawn in your base.

Why do I not see the mod sandbox options when editing server setting?

　　Be sure to enable the mod on the main menu first.

How many zombies would totally spawn in a multiplayer game?
