Dead Land Addon for Minecraft PE (1.20+).mcaddon

DeadZ, also known as Dead Land, is a zombie-apocalypse survival addon for Minecraft Bedrock Edition. It changes the survival experience with infected civilians, infected military units, hazmat enemies, marauders, firearms, ammunition, medical supplies, thirst management, vehicles, clothing, armor, barricades, loot locations, and post-apocalyptic structures. The project credits NekoZack as its creator and contains separate Behavior Pack and Resource Pack files that must be installed together.

1. Addon Overview

• The addon is designed around an outbreak-survival scenario rather than normal Minecraft progression.
• Weapons use separate ammunition types and scoreboard values, so reloading is an important part of combat.
• Medical items support healing, antidote treatment, morphine treatment, splints, bandages, and adrenaline.
• A thirst scoreboard is included. Drinking water and other drinks is necessary for long expeditions.
• Loot blocks, barricades, military equipment, furniture, roads, and ruined structures help create an abandoned-world setting.
• The files include no dragon, egg-hatching, or breeding system. The creatures are spawned as entities or through spawn eggs.

2. Included Packages

Package	Type	Purpose	Required
DeadZ (BP)	Behavior Pack	Entities, items, recipes, functions, gameplay events, vehicles, loot blocks, and weapon logic.	Yes
DeadZ (RP)	Resource Pack	Models, textures, animations, sounds, user interface text, attachables, and visual effects.	Yes

The two manifests reference each other by UUID and version 0.0.1. Installing only one package can cause missing models, missing sounds, or non-functional gameplay.

4. Step-by-Step Gameplay Guide

Receiving items and spawn eggs

1. Activate both DeadZ packs in a test world first.
2. Enable cheats if you want to test the addon with commands.
3. Use the Creative inventory to find DeadZ weapons, ammunition, food, drinks, medicine, clothing, armor, melee tools, materials, grenades, vehicles, and spawn eggs.
4. For direct testing, use the exact identifiers shown in the item or entity files, such as mcpe:ak47, mcpe:5.56mm, or mcpe:sedan. Identifier availability can vary if a file is renamed in a future release.

Egg hatching and breeding

This addon does not contain an egg-hatching, taming, or breeding mechanic. Spawn eggs create entities immediately. The included food and medical systems are for player survival, not for raising creatures.

Farming, feeding, and surviving

1. Search buildings and loot blocks for canned food, drinks, medical supplies, ammunition, and equipment.
2. Eat canned food, MREs, jerky, fruit, vegetables, chocolate, or tactical sandwiches when hunger is low.
3. Drink bottled water and other drinks to restore thirst. The water item adds 10 thirst points and caps the scoreboard at 20.
4. Carry bandages, a first aid bag, morphine, an antidote, and a splint before entering military or infected areas.

Taming and riding

There is no conventional mob-taming system in the files. Vehicles are rideable entities rather than tameable animals. Spawn a sedan or motorcycle, approach it, and use the normal Bedrock interact control to mount it. If a vehicle cannot be mounted, verify that both packs are active and that the world supports the vehicle entity.

Collecting materials

• Collect sticks for splints and basic survival crafting.
• Collect rags for medical crafting.
• Collect nails and barbed wire for improvised melee weapons.
• Collect syringes and filled medical bottles for morphine, antidote, and adrenaline.
• Collect the correct ammunition for each firearm: 5.45 mm, 5.56 mm, 7.62 mm, 9 mm, 12 gauge, .44 Magnum, .45 ACP, .300 Magnum, and .357 Magnum.
• Use loot blocks such as civilian, firefighter, medical, military woodland, police, and rare loot containers where available.

5. Complete Crafting Recipe Table

Result	Recipe type	Ingredients	Station
Splint	Shaped	1 Rag and 2 Sticks in an L-shaped pattern.	Crafting Table or Altar
Nailed Baseball Bat	Shapeless	1 Baseball Bat and 1 Nail.	Crafting Table
Barbed Baseball Bat	Shapeless	1 Baseball Bat and 1 Barbed Wire.	Crafting Table
Morphine	Shapeless	1 Syringe and 1 Bottle of Morphine.	Crafting Table
Antidote	Shapeless	1 Syringe and 1 Bottle of Antidote.	Crafting Table
Adrenaline	Shapeless	1 Syringe and 1 Bottle of Adrenaline.	Crafting Table

Firearms, ammunition, clothing, armor, food, drinks, and most other items are supplied through the Creative inventory, loot systems, or existing addon behavior. The six recipes above are the complete set of JSON recipes currently present in the Behavior Pack.

6. Special Equipment Effects

Equipment or item	Special effect
Bandage	Applies regeneration briefly. The implementation also runs a zero-duration poison command as part of its use event.
First Aid Bag	Applies instant health and absorption, removes the broken-bone state, and clears the temporary poison effect.
Morphine Syringe	Removes the broken-bone state, grants absorption, returns an empty syringe, and applies a brief strong slowness effect while used.
Bottle of Water	Adds 10 thirst points and triggers the thirst display function. The maximum thirst score is 20.
Gas Mask variants	Use a gas-mask equipment tag and head armor slot. The resource pack supplies the visual attachable variants.
Night Goggles	Provides a dedicated night-goggle equipment asset and animation controller for low-light survival equipment.
Firearms	Use individual reload, shooting, ammunition, sound, and animation controllers. Each weapon has a separate magazine score.
Frag Grenade	Is a throwable equipment item with a two-second cooldown and a maximum stack size of five.

7. Useful In-Game Commands

Command	Purpose
/function DZ.ammoStart	Initializes the thirst score and the default ammunition or magazine scoreboard values.
/function thirst	Refreshes the thirst title display and keeps the thirst score within its intended range.
/function reset	Runs the addon's reset function when you need to clear its tracked values.
/give @s mcpe:ak47	Gives an AK-47 for testing, provided the Behavior Pack is active.
/give @s mcpe:5.56mm	Gives 5.56 mm ammunition for compatible weapons.
/summon mcpe:sedan	Summons the sedan vehicle.
/summon mcpe:motor	Summons the motorcycle vehicle.
/scoreboard objectives list	Shows available objectives, including DeadZ weapon magazine values and thirst.

Use commands only after enabling cheats. The addon uses custom identifiers and scoreboard objectives, so command suggestions may not appear until the packs have loaded successfully.

8. Installation Instructions

1. Make a backup of the world before installing the addon.
2. Import or copy the NewDeadZ BP folder as a Behavior Pack and the NewDeadZ RP folder as a Resource Pack using the Bedrock-compatible installation method for your device.
3. Create a new test world or open the target world settings.
4. Activate DeadZ (BP) in Behavior Packs.
5. Activate DeadZ (RP) in Resource Packs.
6. Keep the matching versions together: both manifests currently use version 0.0.1 and explicitly depend on each other.
7. Place DeadZ above packs that replace the same player, weapon, entity, sound, or UI assets. Place unrelated terrain packs below or above it according to their own instructions.
8. Enable any experimental toggles requested by your installed Minecraft version if custom items or entities fail to load.
9. Enter the world and run /function DZ.ammoStart once if the weapon counters or thirst system have not initialized.
10. Test one spawn egg, one weapon, one ammunition type, one drink, and one vehicle before beginning a long-term world.

9. Minecraft Bedrock Version Compatibility

Minecraft version	Compatibility	Reason
1.20.x	Good	The folder name targets Minecraft PE 1.20+, and the packs use older Bedrock item and entity formats.
1.21.0 to 1.21.50	Good	Most legacy item, animation, function, and resource definitions remain supported, subject to device testing.
1.21.60 to 1.21.90	Partial	Older custom item components, UI behavior, and entity syntax may require experiments or small compatibility adjustments.
1.21.100 to 1.21.130	Partial	Newer Bedrock changes can affect custom components, attachables, animations, and command behavior. Test before using a main world.
1.26.x and later	Not officially supported	The manifests declare a minimum engine of 1.8.0 but do not declare verified support for modern 1.26+ changes. Revalidation or updates may be required.

Compatibility labels are based on the pack formats present in this folder, not on an official compatibility statement for every Minecraft release. Always test on a copy of the world.

10. Common Troubleshooting

• Invisible items or entities: confirm that the Resource Pack is active and loaded together with the Behavior Pack.
• Unknown item or entity: check the identifier spelling and confirm that cheats and the correct pack are enabled.
• Weapons do not fire: run the ammunition initialization function, carry the matching ammunition, and verify that the weapon scoreboard has not been reset.
• Thirst does not display: run /function DZ.ammoStart, then drink bottled water and run /function thirst.
• Vehicles cannot be ridden: reload the world with both packs active and test the entity in a new world without conflicting vehicle addons.
• Missing sounds or animations: move DeadZ above conflicting resource packs in Load Order and avoid duplicate weapon or player animation replacements.
• Recipes are unavailable: use a crafting table or altar as specified, and check that the ingredient identifiers are from DeadZ rather than similarly named items from another addon.
• World corruption or severe errors: remove the addon only from a backup copy, inspect the content log, and do not delete the original world.
