endofday
by FateIlya
endofday changes zombies on Forge so they behave as threats in a hostile, end-of-world setting, with behaviors such as breaking blocks and hunting players through walls.
What it does
Zombies in endofday gain a set of behaviors beyond the vanilla ones. They can place building blocks to imitate construction, break blocks in their way, and seek out nearby chests to equip gear, with the choice of armor adjusted to enchantments and durability. They can see through obstacles to find players even when they are hidden inside buildings, and they follow other groups that appear often.
The mod is built for survival worlds and multiplayer servers where zombies should pose a larger challenge. Some zombies use fishing rods to hook players or steal items, and others throw Ender Pearls toward players who are close. Spawning custom entities by hand is disabled, so entity spawns come only from the mod's own rules.
endofday is a Forge mod for 1.20.1 – 1.20.6, and its latest file, 1.6.0-RE, targets 1.20.6. It needs TaCZ (Timeless and Classics Zero) to load. The code is under the Apache License 2.0, and the project is not open source.

How it compares
FasterZombies is a server-side only Forge mod for 1.20.1 under the MIT License. Zombie Waves is server-side only for 1.20.1 – 1.20.6 under All rights reserved. Nekomata Zombie Apocalypse is client-side only for 1.20.1 under the MIT License, so it differs in where it runs: endofday requires both client and server to run its zombie behaviors.
