B42 "BUG" Spawn and died in 1 second

[feral kettle]

I created a new character (the second time after losing my first one). Upon respawning, I was surrounded by zombies and died within 1 second. But the screen said I had survived for 1 minute, which wasn't true.

• No mod - Steam

Survived time is based of in game time survived

Also, zeds can "move before" the player gets in, and there is a option that makes zeds spawning even at your initial home.

This is their second character. They possibly lured zeds inside this specific house previously (or loaded in but never dealt with them) so spawning a second character won't consider this option anymore.

I thought it was a different run

Just out of curiosity, what were your professions?

• I chose Riverside.
• I survived for about 7 days and then died in front of a small Blue Burger shop. next to fishing shop.
• Then, I immediately created a new character in the same city.
• I spawned in a house with about 4-5 zombies, practically shoulder-to-shoulder, and died within 1 second.
• And the third character spawned in the first character's house, allowing me to play normally.

What occupation was the second character, the one who got immediately eaten? I’ve heard (and it may not be true) that Burglars can respawn in ‘occupied’ houses.

The same thing happened to my second character ever, but that was so long ago that I don’t know what I picked for their occupation and traits.
