Zombie Ladder

by PeanutsMods

Zombie Ladder changes how zombies behave on Fabric, letting them climb on top of one another like a pyramid to reach players behind walls.

FabricServer-side onlyAll rights reserved26.1.2

What it does

Inspired by World War Z, the zombies stack into tall, stable towers, so a wall no longer guarantees safety for long. Some commands are available through zombieladder for adjusting the behavior. The mod is server-side only, so players join without installing anything, and the server alone needs it. Fabric API is required, while Cloth Config API and Mod Menu are optional.

Key features

  1. Zombie stacking

    Zombies climb on top of each other to build a pyramid-like column that gets them over obstacles.

  2. Commands

    A set of commands under zombieladder lets server operators control the mod's behavior.

  3. Optional config screen

    With Cloth Config API and Mod Menu installed, settings can be edited in a menu instead of files.

What the author says

Feel like zombies are too dumb? Me too! Zombies can now climb on top of each other like a pyramid, as long as there is a stable foundation, they can get to any height. Safety is no longer guaranteed behind your walls. Optional but recommended dependencies: Mod Menu and Cloth Config API.
