Nice! I just tested on my server 100 tick/nb_update_fequency 0.02 and setting z_resolve_zombie_collision_multiplier "0.25" made the zombie behavior closely match vanilla for me, thanks!

Did you fix the issue where common infected would fall back when you used a melee with a wider attack range?

I didn't and I have no idea what is this and what it has to do with nb_update_frequency convar.
Describe issue better or show video if possible.

As far as I can tell this is also caused by nb_update_Frequency, it seems to be that knockback from melee weapon attacks is ruled multiple times

This happens due to collision between 2 commons is being called more frequently rather than on lower nb_update_frequency.
The extension provides "z_resolve_zombie_collision_multiplier" convar to change multiplier of the collision force.
For reference see this post

I was suggested to automatically set this value based on server's nb_update_frequency and now I think it would have been better to do so back then.

What the heck, great work!

same issue, I know it cannot be full fixed, just reporting it.

try lower z_resolve_zombie_collision_multiplier value?

I’ve noticed that this extension seems to be causing significant slowdowns on my server when there’s a lot of activity in large open maps such as c2m2_fairgrounds. This issue occurs in-game on a versus server with 8 players and sometimes 4 or 5 spectators.

For testing, when I’m the only one connected and increase the mob and common limit from default to 75 and then spawn a large horde, I can replicate the slowdown.

In net_graph 1, I see the tick rate drop from 100 to around 50 when the large horde is spawned. When the extension collision handling is turned off (toggle "z_resolve_zombie_collision" and "z_resolve_collision" to 0) while the horde is still present, the tick rate improves to about 85 or 90. If I turn it back on again, it drops back down to around 50.

When it drops to around 50 or below, the common infected become quite jittery and it feels like the server is struggling.
