Why only pushing though? I'd love to burst unaware zombie that let me sneak up on it with full force of my baseball and see it instantly collapse to the ground. Extra satisfaction points if it squeaks indicating gently that it actually matters whether the zombie knows about incoming attack or not.

Imo this doesn't fit project zomboid gameplay. There would have to be an objective to hold/defend in order to make this reasonable. Otherwise you're just losing resources for contesting anything this event has to offer. Also, keep in mind that PZ development always focuses on subtle, realistic, immersive additions and tweaks so developers taking time for creating and bugixing through versions such a thing is not likely. This a job for the modding community. Seeing where zombies are when a horde is approaching means almost nothing because usually you can predict where they are just from common sense and sound cues. Zombies get extremely buffed and I see no reason at all to fight them during such time. They will easily shred the base and probably they will shred you if you choose to fight them. So why bother? Just hop in a car and drive away - just like when a helicopter event occurs. Edit: I understand what an experience you want to create. The problem is it's just not gonna work that way with what we have in the game.
