(turns out it was this and the interaction with hordes of zombies clumping together perma tripping on each other, removing it fixed that huge fps disaster -- so great in low pop situations but bad in huge horde games)

Curious if anyone experiences unplayable lag from big hordes of zombies when they are packed tight together (say, you are on a roof, and they all huddle underneath you) perhaps due to them constantly tripping over each other? We've had no issue with this mod's functionality (it works just fine)

BUT;

I can run around LV 2-4x pop (2, then 2.5 peak, so i think that means like 4 or 5 total) spamming shout and things are pretty playable as they walk around and exist, but if I stay in an area and make them all collect together into one big zerg & they are completely stacked & squashed on the same few tiles, constantly tripping over each other, it seems like the fps goes to horrrrible.

The mod works great for me. Helps me deal with large hordes more easily with shotgun. The mods directory is called main would it break anything if you called it "Zombies Trip Over Zombies"?

bro doesn't know about "trip n' fall"

would you be adding a option for this to be applied to players?

Eventually, working on a few others.

Would you be updating this for B42?

That would be a 'Steam Collection'.

how a modpack is stealing? isn't it just a list? aren't you downloading each mod individually anyway? isn't it the same as subscribing manually to each mod?

Dont use this mod. Your character will die very quickly

Was there ever an update to fix the bug where zombies would trip over while close to you and they can bite you, making it impossible to fight said zombies, because they're in tripping animation?

And then I went to the Github and it's only the license.

I will say, I do wish the picture that says "Read the description" brought me to the github with the description and not a bingo image.

Localy tried to change distance threshold from 0.66 to 2.0+ and there no fall into character and reset falling animation any more.
I hope you'll add it into sandbox settings so people could change it

Thanks. :)

Keep up the good work!

POV: You are playing SSBB.

Think we could have them take damage when they fall?

This is a vanilla animation issue, it's just not a common occurrence for zombies to be tripping/falling. I can try to look into the animation files to see if there's a flag I can set, but I don't really have this mod on my to-do list.

Yeah, as King Smidgens says, the mod is fun but the problem with tripping zombies while in a fight, is this situation when while tripping, they immediatelement stand up up close and goes for a bite attack.

I would recommend turning the % down a bit in sandbox, lol.

Now then, I used this mod and ended up having zombie tidal waves chase after me
Terrifying as hell but pretty cool

underrated mod. zombies dont trip 'too' frequently and it looks funny when it happens

Really cool mod but it's pretty broken, if you strike a zombie before the falling animation completes they will bounce back up and often immediately take a bite out of you, without being stunned.

This seems to happen sometimes even if you aren't attacking them.

Something to do with the animations flip-flopping causes a reset?

I'm still getting weird animation issues with tripping zombies that are close. 1. I critical hit spear them while they are tripping and the animation goes crazy confused not knowing if they are on the floor or standing. 2. Zombie tripped on bodies near me while I swung a bat. Instead of hitting, it fell but got up instantaneously and bit me. I don't think the distance logic is working well.

for some reason this bugs out the leaper zombies mod, but this mod is so cool!

Players stumbling when they walk back? I can not wait.

Is the sandbox options tweakable while in game as Admin in sandbox options as im not seeing any options to change anything as admin under sandbox settings while in game.

hey chuck thanks for your contribution

僵尸绊倒之类的mod都有一个共同的问题：就是当僵尸刚好要绊倒的时候你按攻击键，他们会立刻起身咬你，我已经这样死了很多次了、sad~我很喜欢这个模组，能增加僵尸的真实度，但总是死亡我很难过~

No problem.

Ooh that's on me for not checking first my bad ! After 350ish mods I had to stop adding every single one at the drop of a hat xD

This mod can work with Monkey's fine. And yes there are sandbox options.

Are there sandbox options ? I want to try this in place of Monkey's to see how they both affect performance, but I also love the option to have them trip randomly even without bodies/other zombies eventhough that probably adds to the lag, but zombies are dumb and shouldn't and it's funny watching them faceplant.

pretty sure the issue is the same issue as "stealth" in the vanilla game, the rng is checking way too often per frame which results in 100 percent. It just got my character killed

Just want to echo some of the other comments (Like UnCheats & Jaxx-pshoooo) about preventing the trip if the zombie is too close to the player based on a set distance. I've had one too many buggy bitin' zombie moments.

But I also want to say that it is definitely one of my fave mods that I'm now always adding to new games.

I have the same issue as @Mang

Having an issue where the zombie will have a 100% chance to trip and do it repeatedly, I have the settings set to 3%

I still hope you add something like:
function zombiesTripOverZombies:isValidTargetDistance(zombie)
local t = zombie:getTarget()
if not t or not zombie:isTargetVisible() then
return true -- no target? Trip as you like
end
local d = SandboxVars.ZombiesTripOverZombies.zombieTripMinDistance
local x = t:getX() - zombie:getX()
local y = t:getY() - zombie:getY()

return x*x + y*y <= d*d
end
And then on zombiesTripOverZombies.trip add a check
if not zombiesTripOverZombies:isValidTargetDistance(zombie) then
return
end

Seems like after reloading a save, the chance of zombie tripping reset to 100%. Also, imo, default should be 10%

Yes.

Compatible with trip n fall?

dang. well, here's to hoping it's seen fit to include in b42 then. my 3 stooges dream of myself and every zombie tripping on every possible thing will be complete.

That's a vanilla bug.

does this mod fix the issue other tripping mods have where a zombie will "trip" over another zombie, animation will have it be hitting the floor, then it instantly stands up and bites you?

Yes.

Does this mod work in MP? Dedicated server with a few qol mods.

I do not see why it would cause any lag, no.

Had to remove because for melee character is a madness to deal with interrupting trip animations and get insta grab from zombies
Limiting distance to player or prevention of animation interruption could fix these issues
