Ended up being kinda underwhelming. It's a great challenge concept that brings out parts of the game that are overlooked in vanilla, like getting your first car, barricading your base, struggling to maintain weight etc. There is an issue however with zombie migration and fear the sun, so very quickly zombies are depleted from the cell your base is in, and only trickle in at night.
There is a mod I have in mind to try which could fix things, since I kept increasing respawn, decreasing time for migration and increasing pop, making going out at day really difficult which was ruining the challenge.
Mods:
Fear the sun, the calm before the storm, horde night, barricade hurt zombie, cheat menu rebirth. See 'I installed 400 mods so you don't have to' video for the UI and flavour mods.
Just so youtube doesn't hate me: project zomboid, challenge, louisville, max pop, population, sprinters, best loot, loot, giant snake, birthday cake, LARGE FRIES, CHOCOLATE SHAKE
