Super hard mode, zombies breaking down my door.

    I've been digging to try to find something that will do this:

    We want to let zombies tear down structures on our server. Basically we are gathering mods to do a zombie apocalypse theme and it wouldn't seem right unless the zombies could tear down doors, fences, etc to get to us.

    Did I miss something that could do this? Is it possible?

    Thanks

    Hmm. This sounds quite interesting. I do believe I'll take a look into it and add this to the plugins I'm working on.

    Yeh sounds pretty easy, if block in front of them is made of door or fence, remove it. I would have taken it on, but looks like someone beat me to it =D

    Not being picky, but how hard would it be to define the block types in a config file as well? That way I could surprise the guys one day by making metal doors vulnerable for example.

    Config files are easy as.

    They are quite easy, and in fact that is what I was going to build a config in anyway so it will be easier to customize. I will also add some more options such as the distance between you and nearby zombies before they set you as a target, and also a few more.
    I know I will be adding this to my server with bedrock as block just to mess with my friends that use worldedit. :p

    Make zombies act like players. They can open the door and it will automaticly shut after a few seconds?

    -_- A zombie never closes the door behind him...

    Good idea though ^_^

    Nor do they open a door. They break them down.
    I am now working on this as I just finished the plugin in my queue that was right before it.

    Sorry I didn't have much time this weekend but I am in the middle of it now. Here is an example of the config that I have set up to build around for now. This is still subject to change but it will most likely be final
    Code:
    settings:
        tpfollow: false # follows player when player TP's
        astrength: 10 # zombie attack strength. 1 = 1/2 heart, 10 = 5 hearts
        arange: 4 # zombie attack range
        speed: 0.5 # speed at which zombie moves. player moves at 1.0
        sightrange: 32 # distance at which zombie can set you as its target. default is 16
        deathspawn: false # spawn more zombies upon death of a zombie
        canbreak: 2-6,12-13,17-20,26,35,47,54,58,64,71,79-82,85-89,91-92
        # blocks the zombie can break.

    Perhaps for a future version, if someone dies, spawn a zombie?

    Either way, I think I'm in love with this plugin. I hope it comes soon =D

    I can easily do that so I'll add an option to allow that. Also I'm adding an option to choose how many to spawn when a zombie/player dies

    Awesome! Can't wait to see the plugin. When MobControl went down, my server kinda did too. To see advanced zombies again will be exciting =D


    PS: Higher priority than APImanager and WolfPack?

    I don't like using priorities when I don't have to except when I use a queue like I do. My current queue is actually 1. ZombieThrash (This. I may come up with a new name for it though), GroupBlacklist, WolfNames, LastLogin, then APIManager

    How about ZombieApocolypse?

    Hmm that could work. It is quite fitting :p

    Think about it this way, if you're banging against a door what's likely to break? The whole door, or that little piece of the wood frame that holds the door shut? Now, I'm not saying that zombies open doors, but if the only thing that breaks is that little part of the frame the player might just be able to wedge it closed again.

    But then again I'm kinda rationalizing out Minecraft. Which is silly, too. I kinda like the idea of still having the door visable.


    Another suggestion, too. Maybe have the beds check for wooden doors and if they exist let zombies in at night (like it would if you sleep in a dark area)?

    That is an interesting idea actually. I'll see if I can add something like that. Another good idea is for them to crawl through those 1x1 block holes players leave open or put glass in

    Crawlers in the config? YES.

    Then again, they could just break the block above it and walk in.

    I'll see what I can do about crawlers. But also think of this, if the block above is not a block the zombie is allowed to break then how do the gain access?

    Any way they possibly can.

    One question: will it play nicely with Mobcontrol? I'm still thinking about using that one to stop creeper and skellie spawns, and stopping the zombies from bursting into flames. I don't want non-zombies lagging the server up, and I'm planning on having an obscene amount of zombies at all times.

    I can try to test it with Mobcontrol, and actually if you plan on having that many zombies and no other mobs then this should work at peak performance.

    I've been using bMobs which doesn't give me enough zombies but does, at least, give me JUST zombies. If this could also limit the creatures spawned to zombies it would be much better than Mobcontrol (which isn't being updated anymore, it seems.)

    Also looking forward to this quite a bit, my friends are bugging me about when my Zombie city will be playable =p
