ZombieSMP

ZombieSMP requires LuckPerms for advanced group and permission management; this is essential to save and restore player roles during infections. PlaceholderAPI is recommended (but optional) to enable the %zombies% placeholder, allowing infection counts to be shown on scoreboards, tab lists, holograms, or chat. The plugin is built for Bukkit Servers 1.21.x, ensuring smooth performance and compatibility. Configuration is handled via a flexible config.yml, where you can customize messages, infection duration, commands, zombie spawn multipliers, and other mechanics to tailor gameplay to your server’s needs.

Features:

• Quadruple zombie spawn rate at night for heightened challenge.

• Beds explode when used, preventing safe sleep and intensifying survival tension.

• Players attacked by zombies or infected players during night get infected for a configurable duration with permanent slowness.

• Infection automatically saves the player’s current LuckPerms group and switches them to a custom “zombie” group.

• Infection spreads when infected players attack human players.

• Infected players cannot attack or be attacked by normal zombies

• Permanent slowness effect cannot be removed by drinking milk or other means.

• Staff commands to infect or cure players: /zombies add , /zombies clear .

• Tracks and displays the number of times each player has been infected via %zombies% placeholder.

• Infection timer can be set to continue counting during offline periods or only while online.

• All messages, commands, and core settings are configurable in the plugin configuration file.

• Data persistence ensures infection states and counters endure server restarts.
