Curias Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Played on Muldraugh. Approached house. Looked inside window. All is clear, jump inside house. All is clear inside for about 5 seconds before a group of around 20-30 zeds spawn all around me and swarm me.

Arthix Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Same just happened to me! I started on Riverside on the Brawler difficulty. I can't think of any other steps to recreate this. Casual_Survivor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casual_Survivor Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 (edited) I had a similar issue when looking through a window to see one zombie at the foot of a staircase and nothing else. Jumped in and engaged the zombie and midway through killing him, 3 zombies seemingly just appeared out of nowhere coming at me from behind the zombie I was engaged with. They all were well within my line of sight and nothing was obstructing my view so I'm at a loss of what exactly happened. Like Arthix, I can't seem to find steps to recreate it since maybe this is one of those randomized scenes you can come across or it's entirely possible there were some tweaks to the detection system. All I can say for sure is that the areas they all "popped in" at were areas I could clearly see and those areas were lit up within my sight cone.  Here is a video example from YouTuber ambiguous amphibian experiencing this bug:  If the video doesn't start at the time I marked, then seek to 8:54.

Lord_of_Cats Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 (edited) It happened to me as well when I was inside the convenience store next to Cortman Medical just a few minutes ago. I had just lured a large pack away from the store, went inside and as soon as I opened the back-room door, another large pack of zombies spawned inside the store with me!! I thought I was a goner. Here's a screenshot of the game console if it helps. Â Edit: My client crashed a few minutes after I posted, I had the game paused to make this post.

EnigmaGrey Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Well, it's awesome to see a video of it. Â We have thought we had sorted this in testing by making it so that zombies would only spawn in the house when you basically look at it from outside, but it looks like it didn't take.

lichterloh Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 (edited) Had this happen too in v41.15. Entered a house and found no zombies inside, but one was outside bumping a window. As I went out and around the house and got its attention I saw ~5 spawn inside. Edited October 22, 2019 by lichterloh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EasyPickins Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 We added a new file called Zomboid/Logs/date_time_ZombieSpawn.txt to record zombie spawns. If you see this happen again, pause the game and look in that file, it should record the reason zombies spawned there.
