Once you set up the basics, you can start adding zombies to the map. Here is how you can do it:

  • Go to Survival Configuration
  • Open the Wave Configuration menu
  • Choose the wave range (1-10)
  • Access Advanced Configuration
  • Enter Squads Configuration
  • Select from the available Squad Presets
  • Pick which Wave Stage you want to modify (Primary, Secondary, or Tertiary)
  • Assign the squad and heavy presets to Zombie Runner, Island Zombie Runner, Zombie Shambler, or Island Zombie Shambler
  • Repeat these settings for every wave you want to include zombies

Make sure you test your map first. Play a few rounds to check if any adjustments are needed. Once you are satisfied with the result, you can publish it. After publishing your Survival job, other players can download it. If enough people enjoy it and give it a good rating, your creation may be featured in the next community series.
