[2020] So I just had my first screamer...

Well not my FIRST screamer but the first time they have spawned anything, and oh god did they spawn something.

I was smelting a whole bunch of iron and ran off to do horde night. When I got back, I noticed that my heat map was at 100% and thought "Oh, well that can't be good" so I turned the forge off (with stuff still in it).

Then I hear it....

Now, I was inside my house, which had a fence around it. I looked through the windows and didn't see a screamer. I am fairly certain that she was on the other side of the fence. The windows were boarded up but light was shining through, so I figured surely with the boards AND the fence she wouldn't see me.

Then she screamed.

Clearly she could see me, so I decided to run outside, shoot her before she could scream again and then take out the zombies she called.

That's.....not what happened. Here is what happened instead.

I round the corner and see the zombies she called in along with her. I shoot her. I hear a scream. There is more than one. I kill a few zombies, find the new screamer and kill her. Then I hear another scream.

All in all I killed 4 screamers and over 60 zombies (I went in and counted). All of my ammo was gone.

Now I was on day 15. I have no idea what my game stage was, but this is my very first time having screamers spawn anything in this type of a capacity. And it was absolutely terrifying. I hadn't done much mining up until this point, but I am starting that now. If this happens again, I can't rely on just buying ammo from the trader and looting. Not if I want ammo on horde night.

Also, I am now terrified to run my forge. I have been running it until my heatmap turns yellow and then turning it off. I have not left the area with it running again. Maybe once I get ammo made, that'll change. But for now I need to be careful....
