Zombie Spawn Issues

[Sadistik]

I recently started a server for my friends and I. We got pretty far. We were able to build a gyro copter and truck.

However, recently zombie spawns at our base have been out of control. In a 24 hour period we were killing 8+ screames. Now it is to the point that if we spend any time there at all we have to lock down and turn on the traps. We killed a blade trap in less than an hour.

Any idea what is causing this or how to fix it? Is this just because of our level and the fact that the 3 of us are in the base together?

Sounds like you're just generating a lot of heat. That's how you get screamers.
