Zombies shouldnt attack empty buildings

[Nuke]

I dont understand why the zombies attack an empty building. they should only attack the houses and ones squads are in. and obviously walls to get to those people. it just doesnt make sense, and it is very annoying especially on day 70, when every day I fight 500 zombies (Where are they coming from? I have killed 10 thousand by now) and they attack all my buildings that are empty costing every resourse i have to rebuild them the next day. just makes the late game not fun. I get it, it needs to be challenging, but give me that option to do harder and harder waves. if not let me do normal waves so I don't have to rebuild my entire base every day. My game is in a small city, about 4,000 population, so the fact I have killed like 10,000 already and more come every day is just making it unfun. I get it, some people want harder and harder every day. I don't. I want to build my city and fight off a few waves every day.

I'm currently pulling waves of 800 with the only repair costs being metal and stone, which are abundant asf in any major city. Smol towns aren't meant to sustain long games. Which is prolly why you're having costage issues with the repairs you shouldn't be making because you set up proper defences, :)

It isnt my hometown, but I do live in Idaho. I just wanted to pick a small town for this game. I have been there in real life though and there is grocery stores and gas stations and convience stores and 3 large schools, so I think the game did not correctly add them. They only have one police station but for me in the gameplay there were like 8.

I wonder if my gameplay is so messed up like this because literally the day it was released I have been playing on this save. I am wondering if I should start over from scratch and see if things are better the second time around.

When the zombies break abuilding, they take it all the way to make it gray and I have to spend like 65 wood to rebuild, along with the metal and bricks but i only notice the wood since that is what i am always out of.

Okay, i appreciate it. Ya that doesn't make sense that it changes so much, especially if it is based on real places. I don't think any of the schools actually gave me any research they were just big buildings. Same with the grocery store, just a big building. I think the actual police station wasn't a police station on the map either.

I had to use map editor to add education to our college and schools here in small town (25k people), and also to add meds to our massive hospital.

Is that like a mod or something? Something someone made or was this pushed out by the developers? That is cool and sounds interesting.


I think my main idea for this game is I want to just have a very small city, with a small workforce, one or just two squads, and imagine we will only fight off a handful of zombies here and there. Thinking the large amount of zombies wouldn't want to leave the big cities and come a long journey in the middle of the country somewhere or even be able to survive such a long trip. And then me and my little camp just thrive and survive. Obviously the game doesn't appear to be developed like that, and for some people they would get bored because there's no increasing danger every night to overwhelm their camp but I guess that's kind of what I was just hoping for by picking a really small town.

I wouldn't mind the buildings being destroyed if some of the resources were left behind. Unless are the zombies eating the bricks and metal?

I saw similar issue. Game created large "police cluster" (8 or so buildings) which is looks like a military base however actual location is just a bunch of ordinary appartment buildings with some shops on the ground floor.
