The <strong>Zombie Difficulty (Speed)<\/strong> setting dictates how fast the undead move when they spot a survivor. While slower zombies allow for a more tactical, classic survival feel, higher speed settings can turn every encounter into a frantic, high-stakes chase. This guide will show you how to adjust the movement speed of the horde using the GGServers panel.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 1: Stop Your HumanitZ Server<\/h3>\n<p>To ensure that all existing and future zombie spawns adopt the new movement physics, the server must be restarted. Access your <a href=\"https:\/\/panel.ggservers.com\/\">GGServers Control Panel<\/a>, select your HumanitZ instance, and click the <strong>Stop<\/strong> button. Wait for the status to show as &#8220;Offline&#8221; before proceeding.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-32.png\" alt=\"Stop the HumanitZ server\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Stop the server to safely update AI movement and speed parameters.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2: Access Server Settings<\/h3>\n<p>Once the server is fully stopped, navigate to the sidebar menu on the left side of the panel and click on <strong>Server Settings<\/strong>.
