Mickkpewpews Special Zombies v2.3

7 days to die mickkpewpews special zombies

Note incase you didn’t read the full mod, please do NOT install this on a live server if it’s already in progress, always install on a fresh wipe to avoid issues. Thank you.

New Changes to V2.3

Incinerator has been removed for good. 16.Aug.2024

New Changes to V2.2

Added a craftable cure for the Hosting debuff

Tweaked code to play nicer on multiplayer servers from most recent feedback.

New Changes to V2

A cure has been added for the Sirens curse. it’s craftable on your person and will remove all stages of the curse.

All bosses except the Proto Demo have had their lootbag drop chance reduced by half.

All bosses except the Proto Demo have had a bit of a make over.

Flood Vessel

This abomination is a menace to society, if it lands a hit on the player it will call in a swarm of smaller flood creatures, and when I say a swarm… I mean it. but that’s not where it ends, oh no you sweet summer child, being struck by the larger vessel or the smaller flood will also result in you losing all perks and skills for a short time, don’t worry you’ll get them back.. i’m not a monster.

The Siren (New Updated Look)

Spawns instant reinforcements upon touching the player in addition to being wickedly fast and silent until enraged, should this zombie land a single finger on you the following will happen, you’ll be considered “Cursed”, what does this mean for you? well.. every few days in-game a horde will sniff you out and make it their business to give you a hug, This will eventually stop happening but not for roughly 2 weeks after you’ve been first struck, keep in mind, this buff CAN stack once it has progressed, so be careful.

Radiated Siren (New Updated Look)

Spawns in instant reinforcements when she touches the player, no curse but the reinforcements can be devastating when you’re not expecting it.

The Ghast (New Updated Look)

Upon laying a hand or spitting on the player and making contact, EVERYTHING considered “food” in your inventory and hotbar will be turned into rotting flesh, This debuff does have a built in grace period where it won’t trigger again but best just avoid being spat on eh?.

The Leshii (New Updated Look)

Calls in a swarm of birds at a distance upon landing a hit on the player.

7 days to die mickkpewpews special zombies additional screenshot 3

Radiated Leshii (New Updated Look)

Calls in a swarm of birds on the player upon landing a hit on the player with either melee or range attacks.

7 days to die mickkpewpews special zombies additional screenshot 1

Prototype Demolition

Big, Bad, Rare to spawn, throws pipe bombs with zero accuracy and more of a spray and pray situation, but should he or his bombs land on the player, you’ll be completely deafened for a short time, making hearing zombies and other threats around you quite difficult.

Will These Spawn Naturally?

Yes, the harder ones will spawn far less often in beginner areas, Night time their spawns have been increased quite a lot.

Is There a Cure for the Curse/Hosting?

Yes.

Is this Serverside?

Yes, Any mod published by me will always be serverside only.

Will This Require a Fresh Start?

Yes, adding mods in later can always cause problems, for this reason I strongly recommend a fresh wipe before installing my mod especially on a live server.

Will This Work With X,Y,Z Mods?

It has not been tested with any other mods, if you’d like me to make it compatible with a mod you like just let me know in the comments.

Can I use this mods code to make my own?

You can you use this in any way you like, no restrictions. – please credit where necessary though.

Bug Fixes

Fixed a bug where the demo’s ranged attack didn’t deafen the player. (found by “TheSilentEnigma”)

Are the buffs like cursed etc supposed to hit all members of a players party regardless of distance? The Ghast spat on one player, and players both 200 meters away and one who was 7000 meters away all had their food rotted.

sadly yes, the party system TFP added is extremely basic and spaghetti code be spaghetti, if you’re worried i’d just not party up or leave items like that in your vehicle or something.

There is no fix for this unless the fun pimps rework the party system they currently have

They can spawn as soon as the server is launched, they’re not super common in the grass lands, because I feel most people see that as a beginner area, other biomes will have higher chances of spawning them, you can adjust how often then spawn in the entitygroups.xml if you want.

When i host a server i can see the Incinerators, but my friends that joins not. They can see all the mod zombies, but this one is invisible, they just see the flames he throws and he attacks them and kill them, while they cant do anything.
We all tried to redownload the mod, but it didnt help. Any suggestions ?

Definitely do not add to existing save game on a 1.0 exp dedicated server if you have other modlets installed. I have too many to list here and it caused my player’s data to become corrupted. Nice job though Mickk. I’ve added other serverside zombie modlets in with no issue don’t know why this one wanted a fresh start. BUT I digress… nice job again.

Hey Mickkpewpew. so i did say that i wrote a add on to your mod. well it turned into something else. has the same theme as your mod but instead of curse its a mark and you are hunted. little more fast pace with only 10 mins until they find you with about 12 semi bosses but after game stage 200 there will be a boss added to the hunt and after game stage 300 two bosses a lot like Santa. loved Santa and used your mod threw out A19 and A20. However i feel that you need credit before i publish or would love to hear your thoughts. If you want shoot me a message on discord james18045 and ill send you a link for the Head Hunter mod or jump on my server Dark Shadows. Ip 131.226.242.77 port 26980 and check them out for your self.

yes sorry I was fairly busy and didn’t get to reply until now, yeah the game event has to fake add the zombies to your party, it’s a minor thing but is a current restriction with the game engine at the moment where you can only have 1 “party” active at a time.

So been testing a lot of stuff trying to find a work around. so when i add this property property name “ignore_multiplier” value “true” param1 “ignoremultiplier” to the “action class=SpawnEntity” it allows game event to fire in a group party but wont fire if your not in a party. Not sure if this helps but maybe two minds are better than one. ive also had this problem in A21.

Up date the property line works game events are firing in a 5 group party or without party every time even tested it both ways with firing them from 2 players seconds apart. in party or not in party. but note i did cut the curse down to only stage 2 for testing so im only firing stage 2 curse spawns and tool belt tips fires every time. Hope this helps love the mod and wrote a add on before i knew game events were not firing sometimes. also side note not sure if you seen message down below but Alt Mats can be used like old replace mat 10.

Not sure if anyone else is having issues with the game events firing on a public server but im having that issue. its works great on single player but when uploaded to sever buffs work great but when it comes time to fire the game events for spawning nothing happens. reason why on single play the toolbelt tip displays on server toolbelt tip does not display and no spawns.

I’ve tested the mod on the current V1.0 and it works perfectly, please check you’re up to date on the game, not sure where your error is coming from but check the following;

Your game version – this mod only works on v1 experimental and v1 release version.
Your other mods – delete them 1 by 1 and see what works and what doesn’t.

if both of those don’t work i’m sorry you’ll have to seek help elsewhere as i’m 100% sure my mod isn’t the one causing your current issue.

Reply to  dakpil

in buffs.xml you’ll find the following buffs all in order;

Cursed
CursedStage2
CursedStage3
CursedStage4

under each buff you’ll find “duration”, to change it to what you want you’ll want to change the “value” of the duration to your desired number, for reference 600 is 10 minutes. it’s just (Number x 60) – 60 referencing the 60 seconds in a minute.

Please note I don’t troubleshoot already published mods if you decide to change values after release.

The little skull in the corner that indicated you’re cursed will change colour once it has triggered to the next stage, you’ll also get a quick message above your hotbar, it’s all very missable since it’s not a mechanic players are used to playing with, hope this helps though!

Hey, If you go into Entityclasses.xml in the mod you’ll find this

property name=”LootDropProb” value=”1″

just change the “1” to something rarer if you’d like, or delete both the LootDropEntityClass and the LootDropProb for each zombie, be careful doing this though as all the code will shift 2 lines possibly causing issues.

They’re to strong to be spawning in pois or quests at the moment, you’ll find them a lot more at night time and if you’re hunting them for some reason you can find them all fairly commonly in the wasteland at night, or in other biomes at night but at a lesser rate.

You are an excellent mod creator, but your zombies are too violent, especially the Screamer who spawns crazy zombies. If you want to create a special zombie, make one that lives in the water and attacks players when they are in it. This will create new gameplay possibilities.

Great work! you the man. loving the mod so far it has inspired me to write a server side weapons mod. its taken awhile but almost done. includes starter kit, 10k stacks, increased wondering hordes, increased spawns in cities, vehicle respawn, 3 slot forges, decreased bullet block damage, increased loot bag drops 17%, loot bag de spawn time, also updated the snufkin friend hat mod and threw that in there. just took awhile to get the progression as close to vanilla and loot just right.

Cant wait to see what zombies you add on to this mod. not sure if you figured this out yet but you can use the AltMats like the old ReplaceMaterial10. you can use 3 to 4 different mats like this Entities/Animals/Bear/Materials/zBear there is a chance could spawn vanilla so i just attach a prefab to them in case that happens. i did build 5 more zombies already as a add on to yours. and with your mod in mods folder im piggy backing you cursed buff. however im trigging it a little different in the entity_classes xml on onSelfAttackedOther. saves the item melee had for extra buffs. i did post a video of them on 7days discord under mod creator help. check them out sometime.

Vous êtes un excellent créateur de mods, mais vos zombies sont trop violents, surtout la crieuse qui fait apparaître des zombies de fou. Si vous désirez créer un zombie spécial, faites-en un qui vit dans l’eau et qui attaque les joueurs lorsqu’ils y sont. Cela créera de nouvelles possibilités de jeu.
