✅ Unlimited Zones & Tiers - Scale as needed
✅ Smart Spawn System- Trigger-based activation
✅ Spawn Chances - Control encounter probability
✅ Auto Despawning - Performance optimized
✅ Bunker Support - Works underground & multi-floor
✅ Any Entity - Vanilla, modded, custom creatures
✅ Debug Tools - Built-in testing commands

This mod creates **intelligent spawn zones** across your map that activate when players get close. Each zone can have multiple spawn points with different entity types, spawn chances, and behaviors. Perfect for:

- Military zones with elite zombies
- Underground bunkers with precise positioning
- Wildlife areas with predator packs
- Urban hordes in cities
- Boss encounters at POIs
- Dynamic events anywhere on the map

Basic Zone Setup

Underground Bunker

Global Settings
- systemEnabled (1/0): Master on/off switch
- checkInterval: How often to check for players (seconds)
- maxEntitiesPerZone: Performance limit per zone
- entityLifetime: Auto-cleanup time (0 = disabled)
- minSpawnDistanceFromPlayer: Safety distance
Zone Parameters
- name: Unique identifier for the zone
- enabled (1/0): Enable/disable this specific zone
- position: Center point of the zone "X Y Z"
- triggerRadius: How close players need to be to activate
- spawnChance: Probability of spawning (0.0-1.0)
- despawnOnExit (1/0): Remove entities when players leave
- despawnDistance: How far players must go to trigger cleanup
- respawnCooldown: Seconds before zone can activate again
Spawn Point Settings
- position: Exact spawn location "X Y Z"
- radius: Random spawn area around position
- tierIds: Which entity tiers can spawn here
- entities: Number of entities to spawn at this point
- useFixedHeight (1/0): Use exact Y coordinate (for bunkers)

Tier System
Create categories of entities by difficulty or type:

Use these in your server console for testing:

This system can spawn ANY living entity in DayZ:
- ✅ Vanilla Zombies (all ZmbM_*, ZmbF_* classes)
- ✅ Vanilla Animals (all Animal_* classes)
- ✅ Modded Creatures (mutants, custom zombies, etc.)
- ✅ Custom NPCs (player-like entities)
- ✅ Mod Compatibility (works with any creature mod)
If it's alive and has a classname, this system can spawn it!

Performance Optimization
- Intelligent checking only when players nearby
- Automatic cleanup of dead entities
- Configurable update intervals
- Entity lifetime limits
Flexible Spawning
- Multiple spawn points per zone
- Mixed entity tiers per point
- Random positioning within radius
- Exact height control for buildings
Smart Behavior
- Spawn protection (won't spawn on players)
- Cooldown prevention (no spam spawning)
- Exit-based despawning
- Chance-based encounters

Entities not spawning?
- Check zone enabled status
- Verify spawn chance settings
- Ensure players within trigger radius
- Use `QuickStatus()` for diagnostics
Performance issues?
- Increase `checkInterval` to 30+ seconds
- Reduce `maxEntitiesPerZone`
- Remove unused zones
- Lower entity counts per spawn point
Bunker spawning problems?
- Always use `"useFixedHeight": 1`
- Test coordinates in-game first
- Ensure Y-coordinate is above floor
