wuwiandClaude Opus 4.8 148da4713c Zombies: organic approach, honest eaten radius; restore CPU strength
- Personal lane offset (homeOff ±0.8m) + a per-zombie shamble wobble so
  on your half they fan around you instead of stacking into one column.
- Eaten check weights depth by 0.75 (z is foreshortened in the projection),
  so a head-on shambler kills you when it LOOKS on top of you — fixes
  "they touch me and I don't die." Lateral reach unchanged.
- Revert aiFlub 0.14 -> 0.09 (undo the CPU weakening).
