Zombies Hunt Too: Allow Zombies to Attack Animals

Zombies Hunt Too

Allow Zombies to Attack Animals

A18 Compatible

​




I always find it weird each time I find zombies spawning near stags, they just stand there shambling around, doing nothing. Don't zombies prey on animal meat too?

This small modlet is my attempt to fix that issue. My first time modding 7 Days to Die, feedback is much appreciated.

[Download Link]

The mod is best used in conjunction with mods that add more animals

so you don't run out of animals to hunt.

e.g.:

Stallionsden's Invisible Animal FIX

or

MeanCloud's Increased Animals

------

TODO: Make zombies also hunt for boars.

I'm still trying to figure out how to add "entityAnimalBoar" class to animalBoar so they will be huntable. If I add the class the game says, "Object reference not set to an instance of an object"

Thanks for the list, CrypticGirl. My time is limited at the moment, so I'm going to downloads mods of your setup. However I'm only able to take a serious look on weekend.

In the mean time, if you have the time to test what might be conflicting with it (by binary testing: only having half of your setup + my mod, if error persists, try having only half of your half + my mod, and so on), it would help me very much.

Please excuse me; have experience modding other games but I'm a complete newbie here. :)

----

On the other news...

Updated to A18.0.2.

I've managed to make zombies attack boars, thanks for Tin's help on the other thread.

Well, I tried it with just your mod and Stallionden's Invisible Animal Fix, and I still get the endless string of errors. Though I noticed it seems to happen when I get near a snow biome. When I teleported myself away from the snow biome, the errors stopped.

 
Also spamming red NREs here, but only when I get close to the snow biome. No errors on startup. I am not using any of CrypticGirl's modlets, except for "KHA18-BackpackButtons". Output is thus, repeating endlessly until I alt-F4:
