This is both an update of all the existing zombie/former scientists already in the repo, as well as a submission of 2 new ones.
I made this primarily to have them all in one single pk3, and to get rid of duplicate actors and assets.
I had Tsran's sprites of a freeze-rifle wielding scientist lying around so I decided to include him in the pack as well. Then I noticed a lack of ranged options for the female scientists so I made one with a pistol.

Here's an overview of the submission/update:
  • new: ZombieScientistFreeze
  • new: ZombieScientistPistol
  • streamlined all classnames by weapon:
        - ZombieScientistAxe
        - ZombieScientistCleaver
        - ZombieScientistCrowbar
        - ZombieScientistHalon
        - ZombieScientistHammer
        - ZombieScientistKnife
        - ZombieScientistPlasma
        - ZombieScientistSyringe
        - ZombieScientistUzi
        - ZombieScientistWrench    
  • ZombieScientistHalon overhauled, now also drops his FireExtinguisher which explodes when damaged
  • replaced male and female voice sounds, streamlined all sound names
  • adjusted sprite offsets, some minor edits to a few sprites
  • removed unused and duplicate assets
  • fixed incorrect obituaries and missing decals
  • updated zscript, replaced deprecated functions
  • adjusted all zombie stats to be more in line with each other
