Over Encumbered

I too have experienced this bug when trying to turn zombie spawning on.  Did you find a fix?

I'm having a hard time trying to reproduce this.
Can you help by answering any or all of the following to help us pin point the issue?

I am currently having the same problems with being over encombered, seems like I am in ghost mode or something as it will not let me climb ladders, can’t run can’t jump, can’t crouch and can’t die. This is when turning zombies back on after it has been off. If I turn zombies off everything is ok, except there is no zombies which defeats the purpose of the game. This has only just started happening today, but I have played before by turning the zombies off and back on again without any issues, this seems to have only happened since the latest update. 
I have tried all variations of what you have suggested for restarting the game, the console, have even logged onto my profile on my partners Xbox x and it is exactly the same issue. The zombies have been turned off at most for a couple of days as I switched them off while building underground. I’ve put many hours into the server that I am on so would appreciate a fix for the issue as would really rather not start again. Also, you need better advice for how to report a bug with yourselves for console games. Reading what is wrote on your guide isn’t very clear unless you are playing on a computer. 

Same issue, played with zombies on for 10 days and then switched off and after a bunch of days I go to turn them back on and now player is glitched out, no damage can be taken, can’t consume anything, no jump, sprint, crouch, etc. when I turn enemy spawn back off game works fine. I tried to kill player and reset app on the spawn on bed screen and turn them back on and player was still alive with 0 health and still all issues. 

Is this going to have a fix, some sort of update would be appreciated considering how many hours people are putting into their games and then not being able to play the game properly as I can’t turn back on the zombies.

should I start investing my time on a new server or carry on trying to make it work on the old one, even a little update from yourselves would be appreciated otherwise it is just continued wasted time if it is not going to be fixed. 

I had the same issue.  I played normally till day 5, then I turned spawns off to do a quick raid on the Shotgun Messiah building.  I got back to base, quit the game, then turned spawns back on.  I was over encumbered even with no items in my inventory.   I could interact with every thing in my base, but not outside including my bike.  I wasn't getting hungry or thirsty.   I couldn't take fall damage.  There were no zombies even though I turned spawning on.  I couldn't drown or take damage from spikes.  I quit, turned spawns off, and reloaded.   It was fine.  I died to try a reset and spawned back at base.  I quit and turned spawns back on.  I got the same problems as before.  Currently, I can't play with spawns on.

Same issue, with zombies turned on the game is basically unplayable and nothing spawns. If you turn them back off its fine, but for some reason random straggler zombies spawn around the map.

I am have the same bug spawn off everything fine turn it on can't move are anything

Just this morning we found a 100% reproduction for this issue and are already testing a potential fix.

Good news is that the fix "should" allow you to continue your save games. Testing underway now to verify.

No patch release date at this time.

A hotfix has been released that addresses this issue, please make sure your game has been updated. It should say "V1.0 b336" on the top right corner when starting the game. Should you run into other issues, please open a new bug report. Thanks!
