Dog spawns

[DeadShot007]

A dog spawned right behind me in a mini building and killed me, Why does that happen?

Because spawning needs still to be fixed.

and also, some zombies spawn in buildings if i go down stairs in a house, then back up.

[DeadShot007]

that is after i cleared the house.

put a bedroll down then they will not come back

Yes, that's another *known* problem with "sleepers" spawning.

Its an issue with the sleeper spawning system at the moment, the game determines how many sleepers are going to be in the building before you enter it, and begins trying to spawn them all, but for some reason it borks up a bit, and usually the player enters the building -before- it finishes placing them, and they cannot spawn in while you're looking at the locations they're supposed to spawn.

So when you put your back to a place where one is supposed to spawn but hasnt, it can spawn now, and appears and attacks. same thing when you go up stairs and back down and suddenly theres more zombies. I always wait a moment outside, breaking apart a car or something, then go in, sweep through the building to the roof, and then sweep back down, and THEN loot.

You could also go in, look around, step back out to the street, and then go back in, and it should spawn all/most of them. Few different workarounds.

i dont like the sleeper system would love to see it removed, walk by a house look in the window you see sleepers suddemnly appear or you see one and they disapear, hope they put a sleeper of button before they finish the game same said for wandering hordes you can be walking along then 20 odd just appear, would l;ike to see the horde dog packs etc start from out of view bit of a game killer hordes just appearing

The issue with seeing them spawn/despawn is part of the issue with the spawning system, you only see that sort of thing when looking through a window of some sort, because the game engine considers that a blocked line of sight, and when they despawn, its because it has started trying to spawn them in a different building based on your movement and facing, trying to figure out -where- you're going and which building it should be placing zoms in. Over time it will be fixed and refined.

That said.. If you take out the wandering hordes (Which it would at least be nice if they didnt 90% of the time walk straight TOWARDS where you were when they spawned), and sleeper zombies, theres basically no zombies left in the game. May as well just turn them off at that point.

Ive had hordes spawn and walk right by the base and i just let them go, i think as its mp they may have been going to another player.just wish thry would scrap sleepers maybe come up with a few random really hard zds maybe already hidden in a room out of site but this sleeper system really needs soreting out

Zombies spawn in buildings.
Dogs are on the list of approved zombies.

Some buildings spawn dogs more often than others (small hardware shops, barns).

And yes, building spawning is still broken. You can clear the building and instantly have another spawn. That needs to be fixed. Once you clear a building, the only zombies that should appear are through the front door.

Because you had your back turned.

Because dawgs are badass. Especially WOLVES.

They are working on the proximity spawn issue from what I hear.

the longer you survive the more variety of sleepers you get right now im on day 42 no deaths on warrior. Almost every sleeper i get is feral and 30% of the sleeper spawns are dogs or feral wights. edit: The dogs also will spawn in most of the ♥♥♥♥♥♥ stores like the white ones that say books or pills. I think that is a bug
