Burvy's Zombies
by burvy
Burvy's Zombies changes how zombies behave on Fabric servers, with zombies that break blocks, pile up against walls, hear players and investigate noises.
What it does
Zombies in the mod can break blocks on their way to a target, climb over one another into piles, and react to sounds made by players. Their pathfinding is simplified to keep the mob logic lighter, and an automatic lag management routine runs alongside them to reduce strain on busy servers. The mod is aimed at survival and adventure play and at minigame setups where zombies are a central threat.
Burvy's Zombies is set up for Fabric and requires Fabric Language Kotlin. It runs on the server alone, so players join without installing anything. Files are published for 1.21.11 only, with version 1.0.3 as the latest Fabric file from 2026-04-06. The mod is released under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license and is not open source.

Hearing and investigation
Zombies respond to player noises and move to check where a sound came from.
Automatic lag management
A built-in routine adjusts zombie activity to limit performance drops when many mobs are active.
