Hi there,
with less than 2 weeks till the Early Access release I'm currently busy with testing the performance of the game when lots of Zombies have been spawned and also when there are many dead zombies lying around.
A Zombie can exist in 3 states: As a living being (if you can say so ːsteamhappyː , as a Ragdoll (for example when hit by a car or when dying) and a lootable container (just like any other object you can loot). When the Zombie is in this 3rd and last state I preserve the pose and clothing at the moment of death. And of course this needs to be re-instantiated every time this part of the map is reloaded.
Besides that I've also increased the number of sounds a Zombie makes while approaching or when dying to improve on the overall atmosphere of the game.
