Zombies plus plus
by Multicoder
Zombies plus plus changes how zombies act in the world, adding attacks on farm animals and destruction of crops, on servers running Fabric or NeoForge for 1.20.4 – 1.21.3.
What it does
Zombies plus plus replaces part of the default zombie behaviour with new AI goals. Zombies can attack sheep, cows, pigs and chickens, and they can destroy crops, so farms become a target as well as the players. The changes aim to make the zombie threat more demanding and to add pressure on food and resources, and the mod is meant for survival play where those systems matter.
Fabric API is required on Fabric, so it must be installed next to the mod. Zombies plus plus runs on the server alone: players join without installing it, and clients need nothing. Files are published for Fabric and NeoForge across four release versions, 1.20.4 – 1.21.3, and the mod is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later. The source code and issue tracker are public.
Key features
Zombie attacks on livestock
Zombies go after sheep, cows, pigs and chickens, which changes how safe a farm is at night.
Crop destruction
Zombies break crops, and the set of affected crops is defined by a crops tag that can be edited.
New AI goals
Zombie behaviour is extended with new AI goals, so their movement and targets differ from vanilla.

Use cases
Survival servers with farms
Server owners who want livestock and crops to face more risk can run the mod without asking players to install anything.
Who it’s for: Server owners and survival players who want harder zombies and more pressure on farms. Because the mod is server-side only, it suits multiplayer servers that keep the vanilla client.
How it compares
All aggressive is open source under the MIT License and covers Fabric and NeoForge for 1.20.1 – 1.21.1, so it has a shorter version range than this mod. Zombie Take Over is a Forge and NeoForge mod for 1.20.1 – 1.21.5 that is not open source, and it is licensed as All rights reserved. Both are server-side only, like Zombies plus plus.
