[18.4] Zombies stopped spawning

[Zemekis]

I've been playing 7D2D with a couple of friends new to this game. We started in Navezgane, plain vanilla.

We've been playing till day 29. Night 28 was pretty intensive and that's where we stopped the game. Next, we played two days later and now there's no zombie spawning anymore

I mean we have been to new houses and there were no zeds inside and only 2 zeds when driving to from the desert to the frost biome and back. Any idea why this is happening? All  houses are empty.

Most common causes.

1. You used the settime command.

2. The client server was not shut down properly.

Most common fix.

1. Wipe the affected region files.

2. Start a new save.

How do you know which region files are affected? I ended up deleting all .rg files. The good thing is, previously looted houses are now full in stock. The downside is: all I build is gone.

And even more frustrating: still no zombies.

When you say start a new save, you mean a new game?

Yes, that is what Sylen meant

Also do regular backups of your save, 7D2D needs to constantly write to its save because of the fully changeable world making corrupted saves much more likely than in other games, even if this weren't still in alpha.
