PC How does the spawning for wandering hordes work?

I'm wanting more wandering hordes. Assuming they come twice a day according to the wiki, I'd like to find the setting and force them to come four times a day. Our server wants the struggle and challenge. I want an unliving, unbreathing, swarm of zombies happening regularly so that we can battle and survive without having to just tweak how often horde night comes. Is there a setting to make them come four times a day or is that no longer how it works in A17?

 
From what i have been checking in a no zombie kill playthrough, as well as looking up info in the console, there is an interval after defeating a WH when a next will not spawn. This allows time for killing them and not having 2 at a time. Additionally, every WH zombie dies after a period of time after spawning (seen it in both A16 and A17). Apart from that, even if you sneak around, WH will follow players general direction (unless they changed it, after seeing them n the horizon, i hid countless times in a base on stilts and they came from various distance to me, slowly creeping all together). So unless you run/ride far enough to despawn the whole group or wait for them to die, you need to kill them manually or with traps.

 
Please do not resurrect old threads. Wandering hordes don't even work the same as they did in 2018 and anyone clicking on this thread will read the OP and get confused because of the outdated information. If you want to talk about wandering hordes start a new thread so that everyone is talking about the current version of it.
