Mebahel's Zombie Horde
🧟 Mebahel’s Zombie Horde
A terrifying survival mechanic where the undead come in waves. Every few minutes, a horde appears and marches to a random location… and if they all attack sees you — they all attack.
With enhanced AI and full configurability, these zombies will fences, fences, and swarm your base in numbers.

🧬 Horde Composition Example (v1.0.5+)
``` { "hordeCompositions": [ { "weight": 1, "dimensions": [ "minecraft:overworld" ], "mobTypes": [ { "id": "minecraft:zombie", "weight": 40, "spawnWithWeaponProbability": 0.25, "weapons": [ { "itemId": "minecraft:iron_sword", "chance": 0.5 }, { "itemId": "minecraft:stone_sword", "chance": 0.3 }, { "itemId": "minecraft:wooden_sword", "chance": 0.2 } ] } ] } ] } ```
``` - the more the weight is the more probability to be chosen - spawnWithWeaponProbability (v1.0.13+) set the chance of the entity to be equipped with a weapon (between 0.0 and 1.0) - total weapon chance should be 1.0 ```
