Random Rally Settings

I wanted a little more variety to how zombies group up and behave throughout a playthrough, so this mod provides a daily chance for the rally group settings to be randomized.

With this, there is now a chance for groups to dissipate entirely and spread out wandering around alone, or travel long distances to join a group, or spread out or clump together or join larger groups than normal instead of only following the settings at the start of the game.

The settings are randomized between a customizable minimum and maximum. All are set to the extreme minimum and maximum that are possible by default, with the exception of Rally Group Size. The daily chance is 40% (also customizable).

With too high of a Rally Group Size setting, zombies would form large hordes but would leave large swaths of the map empty, making the game fairly easy because the horde is pretty avoidable.

So by default the max Rally Group Size is 40, double the default of 20.

It can take time for the zombies to form up to the new settings which is why the daily chance is somewhat lower, also to give the setting a chance to have to be dealt with over multiple days.

I couldn't get some error checking to work, so be sure you don't set the min higher than the max and vice versa!


Which settings are changed and the in-game description:

Rally Group Size - The size of groups real zombies form when idle. Zero means zombies don't form groups. Groups don't form inside buildings or forest zones.
Minimum = 0
Maximum = 1000
Default = 20

Rally Travel Distance - The distance real zombies travel to form groups when idle.
Minimum = 5
Maximum = 50
Default = 20

Rally Group Separation - The distance between zombie groups.
Minimum = 5
Maximum = 25
Default = 15

Rally Group Radius - How close members of a group stay to the group's leader.
Minimum = 1
Maximum = 10
Default = 3

I am not sure about MP compatibility, made with singleplayer in mind.
