Don't Go Too Far is a server-side mod that divides the Overworld into 5 danger zones based on distance from spawn. The further players venture from civilization, the stronger, faster, and more numerous the zombies become.
Designed for post-apocalyptic zombie survival servers
✦ How it works
The Overworld is divided into 5 concentric zones centered on (0, 0). Each zone applies independent multipliers to zombie damage, health, speed, and spawn rate. The further you go, the harder it gets — and there's no hand-holding about it.
| Zone | Distance from spawn | Difficulty |
|---|---|---|
| 1 — Safe Lands | 0 – 500 | Normal |
| 2 — Frontier | 500 – 1500 | Moderate |
| 3 — Wildlands | 1500 – 3000 | Hard |
| 4 — The Abyss | 3000 – 5000 | Extreme |
| 5 — Beyond | 5000+ | Maximum |
All zone boundaries and multipliers are fully configurable.
✦ Features
