About this Mod

🧟 Infectionary

Zombie apocalypse survival mod for Minecraft

Survive the infection. Scavenge. Adapt. Don’t turn.


📋 Table of Contents


Overview

Infectionary transforms Minecraft into a brutal zombie apocalypse survival experience inspired by survival horror games and cinematic apocalypse worlds.

The world is no longer safe.

Cities are abandoned. Roads stretch through ruined settlements. Supplies are limited. Zombies aren’t just enemies — every hit risks infection.

Manage your stamina, thirst, injuries, and infection while scavenging through handcrafted abandoned structures and surviving against the collapse of civilization.

Infection System

How Infection Works

Whenever a zombie attacks you, there is a 15% chance of becoming infected.

Infection progresses through 5 stages, each becoming more dangerous over time. If the infection reaches Stage 5, the player dies and reanimates as a zombie.

⚠️ Stage 5 is irreversible.


Infection Stages

Stage Symptoms Status
Stage 1 Mild nausea, slight slowness Easily treatable
Stage 2 Increased nausea, minor damage over time Antidote effective
Stage 3 Weakness, visual distortion Dangerous
Stage 4 Heavy damage over time, severe disorientation Final chance
Stage 5 ☠️ Death & zombification No cure

Infection Treatment

Item Effect
Antidote Completely cures infection up to Stage 4
Suppressant Pauses infection progression for 2 minutes
Painkiller Temporary resistance effect

Survival Systems

❤️ Manual Healing

Natural regeneration has been completely disabled.

You must rely on crafted medical supplies to survive injuries.


🏃 Stamina System

Stamina controls your ability to:

  • Sprint
  • Fight effectively
  • Perform exhausting actions

Running out of stamina can leave you vulnerable during combat or escapes.


💧 Thirst System

Hydration is essential.

Keep water supplies stocked or risk dehydration penalties.

Purified water is safe — future updates may introduce contaminated water systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

Infectionary server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong fabric version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (26.1.2). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is Infectionary compatible with fabric?

Infectionary officially supports fabric for Minecraft 26.1.2. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with Infectionary – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Infectionary consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
