Zombie Take Over
by deinomodder
Zombie Take Over changes how zombies spread on a server, letting them turn living mobs and players into more zombies.
What it does
Zombies in this mod infect what they attack. A mob struck by a zombie can turn into another zombie once it dies, so an undead group grows during a long survival session. The changes reach players and villagers too, and the behavior is meant to make survival longer and less predictable. Only the server needs the mod, so players join without installing anything. Files target Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1 – 1.21.5, and the project is published under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
Key features
Infecting zombies
Zombies spread their infection to nearby living things, so the threat grows across the world.
Mobs turn into zombies
A mob killed by a zombie rises again as another zombie, so one attack can start a larger group.
Attacks on living mobs
Zombies go after animals and villagers as well as players, which makes every area less safe.
