Is it possible to mod out the ability the 7 day horde has to always find you?

[katarynna]

This is strictly a question. I have no desire for someone to assist with creating a mod or anything like that.

 

There is someone on the steam forums who is extremely upset and extremely unpleasant over the fact that the 7th day horde can always find him now, whereas in a16 he could hide underground. I suggested he post here and ask for help modding it out.

 

He says it is impossible to mod out and that if it were possible he could do it himself.

 

I am just curious if it is indeed impossible.

 

Thanks to anyone who can help.

I'm about 80% sure it is possible to mod it out. There is code that deals with that lines 906-966 in spawning.xml

Something like this should work too
