Original zombies - zombies now use the real Rust Legacy zombie from the December 2013 build: its model, bloody texture, ragdoll and animations (hunched idle, limping walk when roaming, sprint when chasing, two random swipes), a bit taller than a player

Zombie sounds - the original zombie groans, chase calls, alert cries, attack screams, punch impacts and death sounds, heard from up close like in Legacy

Zombie attacks - each swipe takes 1.5 seconds and lands halfway through the animation, so stepping back in time dodges it

Fake players - a new BOTS tab in the admin menu places posed survivors for videos and screenshots: pick a name, an outfit (naked to rad suit), an item in hand (rocks, tools, a lit torch, bows and guns) and a pose (standing, crouched, swinging a melee tool, sleeping), then turn, move, heal or remove them; they show a name tag like real players, take damage through their armor and fall as a ragdoll when killed
