š§ Mebahelās Zombie Horde
A terrifying survival mechanic where the undead come in waves.
Every few minutes, a horde appears and marches to a random location⦠and if just one sees you ā they all attack.
With enhanced AI and full configurability, these zombies will break glass, fences, and swarm your base in numbers.
š¦ Requirements
š„ Required for Forge / NeoForge users (via Sinytra)
š§µ Required for Fabric users
ā Key Features
ā± Timed Zombie Horde Events

š Group Awareness
If one zombie spots you, the whole horde attacks.
š§ Barrier-Breaking AI
Zombies smash through glass and fences to reach their prey.
š§Ŗ Modded Entity Support

š„ Nether Increases Difficulty
Once a player visits the Nether, hordes become stronger.
āļø Fully Configurable
Adjust size, speed, health, spawn rate, aggression, and more.
𧬠Horde Composition Example (v1.0.5+)
{
"hordeCompositions": [
{
"weight": 1,
"dimensions": [
"minecraft:overworld"
],
"mobTypes": [
{
"id": "minecraft:zombie",
"weight": 40,
"spawnWithWeaponProbability": 0.25,
"weapons": [
{
"itemId": "minecraft:iron_sword",
"chance": 0.5
},
{
"itemId": "minecraft:stone_sword",
"chance": 0.3
},
{
"itemId": "minecraft:wooden_sword",
"chance": 0.2
}
]
}
]
}
]
}
- the more the weight is the more probability to be chosen
- spawnWithWeaponProbability (v1.0.13+) set the chance of the entity to be equipped with a weapon (between 0.0 and 1.0)
- total weapon chance should be 1.0
