More Options For Disabling Zombie Digging!

Hello! I just made this account specifically so I could write this idea of mine as soon as possible before the 3.0 update comes out. Basically I LOVE LOVE LOVE the new setting that is coming to disable zombies from digging. IT IS SUPER SUPER annoying in my playthroughs and it messes up a lot of things on peoples YouTube series that I've seen.

HOWEVER... Completely Disabling the digging mechanic awhile extremely useful I would MUCH rather have the additional options of ONLY DISABLING ZOMBIES FROM DIGGING DIRT AND THE GROUND/TERAIN. As that is the main thing that just doesn't work out and is really annoying and hard to figure out how to stop zombies from getting lost underneath your bases. ALSO I ACTUALLY WANT THEM TO STILL ATTACK MY BASE AWHILE ALSO NOT DIGGING UNDER IT.

Anyway my suggestion is for the zombie digging option to have well more options for disabling them from attacking specific blocks like dirt and terrain!


So yeah hope you all approve of my suggestion thanks for reading <3
 
I myself, think that turning off zombie digging would be unfair. Cause then what would the point of having a bloodmoon be, if you just sat in your underground bunker while the zombies are above doing nothing, but standing around while you wait till bloodmoon is over, so you can go back up and kill however many zombies there are and call it a bloodmoon victory? Where's the challenge in that?!

...You know you can turn horde night (and zombie spawning in general) completely off, right?

If a player enjoys combat, they are free to leave their base and fight. Nobody is stopping them.





However, some players enjoy cooking, crafting, farming, building, or simply spending time inside the base they worked hard to create. Why shouldn’t they have that choice?





Survival games are at their best when they allow different playstyles to coexist. I don’t understand why players who prefer a quieter, more defensive approach should be forced into combat when they clearly chose a different way to play the game.

I like the idea of zombies can still dig dirt, they have to dig out of their graves, but other blocks can stop them digging, then the options can be zombies can dig wood , cobble, concrete, steel dependent on players options. Maybe even add dirt, that would stop them completely. Thanks

I actually am not talking about hiding. I'm talking about when the stupid zombies spawn underground or get stuck because of bad AI then dig the crap out of your base. Like I WANT TO FIGHT THEM BUT THEY ARE BUSY BEING STUPID UNDERGROUND-

It's just very annoying and not very fun a lot of the time

Well for now I recently noticed that the new digging toggle option for zombies is to stop them from digging ONLY TERRAIN just like I wanted so yay. Though apparently it will ONLY stop them from digging straight down. So honestly good. Just means I'll have to put walls in my trenches.

I was giving an example as to how unfair it would be for players to just sit through bloodmoon in a underground bunker (if they had one), while zombies just stand around above the bunker and not able to dig into the bunker with digging off. You've had zombies spawn in your underground bunker? I've never had that happen yet. Digging into your base is part of the game and what makes it challenging. If it was too easy without some sort of challenge, I wouldn't of invested over 2500 hours into the game now.

Yeah, but what would be the point in playing the game without both then?
Because some people just enjoy building and surviving?

My last game I had blood moon turned off just because I didn't feel like dealing with it.

Personally, I'd like to be able to disable biome zombies, as I find them more of an annoyance than a challenge. But I'm not really super interested in fighting and looting (though I generally do enjoy Blood Moons, I was just a little burnt out on it,)

Where is the bunker coming from? I had an above ground base with zombies STUCK underground that wasn't fun lol

I have one friend that turns off bloodmoons and just has all other zombies NIGHTMARES. I'm basically gonna try it or have very few blood moons. Lots of ways to play this game it's really cool!
