**Smart Zombies – Break Through Walls** is a Minecraft Forge 1.16.5 mod that makes zombies smarter, more persistent, and more challenging.
Zombies can remember players and other targets they have seen, track them even after losing sight of them, and search for a path to reach them. When their path is blocked and no suitable route is available, they can mine through breakable blocks to pursue their target.
**Features**
* **Target Memory:** Zombies remember targets for a configurable duration, even when they disappear from sight.
* **Smart Pathfinding:** Zombies follow available paths, including routes that require climbing, instead of unnecessarily breaking blocks.
* **Wall Breaking:** When blocked, zombies can dig through breakable obstacles to reach their targets.
* **Intelligent Block Selection:** Zombies choose suitable blocks to break and adapt to targets at different heights.
* **Persistent Mining Progress:** Breaking progress survives brief interruptions.
* **Coordinated Hordes:** Zombies avoid competing to break the same block.
* **Performance Optimizations:** Shared target searches, cached path checks, and throttled updates help reduce unnecessary processing.
* **Configurable Settings:** Adjust target memory duration, breaking speed, and breaking distance.
Get ready for a more intense survival experience where walls are no longer guaranteed protection. Build smarter defenses, plan your escape routes, and beware of zombies that remember where you went!
