Does anybody here think it is possible to make an enemy type of zombie that can attack from range ? Either by picking up an object or throwing their own arm or something . But the zombies can only ranged attack every 12-15 seconds or something. Not really a zombie boss bit all the zombies could do this if within range and timeframe . Be cool if player could shoot the projectile to counter.

I've seen maps with Shrieker zombies, those sort of work in a ranged fashion?
Maybe you could modify a script like a Shrieker's and have it target players when x units away from them?
