A mod that makes Minecraft zombies smarter and more dangerous! If you've played "Zombie Apocalypse 100 Days" scenarios, you know the thrill of being hunted by intelligent zombies. In this mod, zombies are no longer mindless vanilla husks — they think, they break walls, they build bridges, they use weapons. They will make you fear the undead all over again! 🫣

🎮 How smart are zombies?

🧱 They break your base!

Zombies detect you behind walls and dig right through!

• Builder — breaks walls, paves paths, builds bridges, clears overhead blocks, even builds over water
• Miner — smart digging, prioritizes blocks between them and you

🛡️ They use shields!

Shield zombies block frontal attacks — use an axe to break their guard! 💥

🧨 They use TNT!

TNT Attacker zombies are pure chaos.

• Throw mode — pulls TNT from thin air, lights it, and tosses it like a grenade from up to 16 blocks away
• Self-destruct mode — when enemies get too close, they ignite and blow themselves up
• Must have mobGriefing enabled to use TNT abilities

🏹 They use ranged weapons!

• Bow Attacker — shoots arrows from range
• Crossbow Attacker — uses crossbows (Piglins holding crossbows automatically become this type)
• Musket Gunner — requires Musket Mod, devastating ranged firepower 🔫

👃 Super sensing!

With enhanced_sense enabled, zombies can:

• Smell your blood from 64 blocks away 🩸
• Feel block vibrations from 16 blocks
• Hear gunshots from 64 blocks (silencers reduce to 16 blocks) 🔇

🏗️ They build bridges!

Gap in the way? Builder zombies will bridge it themselves — even over water!

🏊 They swim!

With swimming probability enabled, zombies can chase you through water. Swimming zombies won't convert to drowned (protection mechanic).

💪 All stats are configurable

Through the config file, you can control: health, armor, speed, damage, knockback resistance, equipment quality and enchantments, sun/fire immunity chance, and more.

⚠️ Notes

• This mod uses a zombie type system (zombie_type) different from vanilla: only the correct zombie type can use its corresponding weapon (e.g., only bow attackers shoot)
• Mixin injection is applied to zombie/zombie villager models — report any mod rendering conflicts (previously conflicted with Wither Storm's zombie model mixin)
