Defend Against Zombie Towers

Understand the Threat

Zombies in this mod will stack on top of each other to form living towers, allowing them to reach platforms and ledges you thought were safe. A single zombie can climb, but multiple zombies create an exponentially dangerous structure.

Defense Strategies

Create horizontal barriers: Build your base with overhanging roofs or ledges that extend outward. Zombies stacking vertically cannot reach targets hidden under horizontal cover.

Use water moats: Since zombies can swim, water alone won't stop them, but combine it with a vertical wall. The water slows their stacking attempts and makes tower-building less stable.

Increase platform height strategically: Rather than one tall tower, use multiple smaller platforms spaced far apart. Zombies must restart their stacking attempt for each gap, buying you time.

Light up aggressively: Remove all dark spots near your base. While zombies no longer burn in daylight, they still spawn less frequently in well-lit areas, reducing the horde size available to stack.

Funnel into kill zones: Design pathways that force zombies into narrow corridors where they cannot effectively stack, then use damage traps or lava channels.
