Problem: "My walls are 4 blocks high, but the zombies are stacking up and climbing over!" Solution: In flat worlds, zombies stack perfectly because the ground is even. You need a "lip" around the top of your wall. Place upside-down stairs on the top outer edge. Zombies cannot climb over an upside-down stair lip.
