ZA-Z update, 27 September 2026: ZA-Z's Gear and Clothing, Ink 4.0, boss zombies and new clothes
The day after the mods went live, ZA-Z kept going. A set of clothing mods arrived in the early hours, and the 18:23 SAST restart on 27 September 2026 (Day 97) brought our third mod, ZA-Z's Gear and Clothing, together with ZA-Z's Ink 4.0 and ZA-Z's Essentials 1.3 with the server's two boss zombies. The UH-1B Huey's cargo hold grew to 500 the same afternoon.
#ZA-Z's Gear and Clothing arrives
Twenty mythic items: twelve bags with 90 to 100 % weight reduction (the Loot Goblin's Pack, Relief of the Overburdened, Bag of Holding and Invisible Bag families), three pairs of boots and four pairs of gloves with real powers, from half the endurance drain to swinging 20 % faster. At first admins handed them out; since 30 September they are world loot at 1 in 10,000 containers.
#Boss zombies: the Knox Heavy and Patient Zero
Essentials 1.3 added the Knox Heavy, an armoured tank with 70 health that shrugs off critical hits and knockback, and Patient Zero, a sprinter in a hospital gown who screams to pull every zombie within 150 tiles. Neither spawns naturally: they appear at events. Essentials also gained the (all N) right-click entries, so you can open a whole stack of ammo boxes or load every magazine in one go (ZA-Z's Essentials).
#Ink 4.0
Overnight, Ink 2.0 and 3.0 made every arm and leg design available for either side, added back and thigh placements and brought the Polynesian sleeve. Ink 4.0 added the dainty set in black and in colour, the Player One and Glory Days sleeves, and the War story and Archangel full back pieces. Tattoos then went on from your page on the website; the Tattoos and the Tattoo Parlour came on 30 September.
#New clothes, and two mods leave
Spongie's Open Jackets, Spongie's Clothing and Vanilla Clothing Expansion joined in the early hours. In the evening the VW Type 2 and Lite Pack Backpack mods left the server.
#A bigger Huey hold
Every Huey's cargo hold now takes 500, more than twice the mod's 230 (Vehicles and driving). Rebel News printed issue 2 the same day: the secret base raid.
