Apocalypse
This simple mod intends to make zombies more interesting and harder to deal with, by allowing them to break blocks and slightly altering their AI.
All of the changes are fully customizable using Cloth Config.
Currently includes:
- Configuration for zombie attack speed, pathfinding, targeted entities, and other misc changes.
- A block breaking goal for zombies, with configurable speed and target block hardness
- A horde spawner, similar to Minecraft's phantom spawner, with configurable timing, size, and distance from the player
A configuration guide can be found here
Requires Fabric API 0.69.1+1.19.3 or above and Cloth Config API v9.0.94 or above
Mod Menu isn't a hard dependency, but is required to open the configuration screen.

Apocalypse server crashes on startup – what to do?

Server lagging with Apocalypse – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Apocalypse consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge.
