give an analysis of this code (Thank you)

on spawn of a zombie:
	if "%Spawn Reason%" is "Natural":
		wait 1 second
		loop zombies in radius 5 of last spawned zombie:
			loop all players:
				set path targets of loop-zombie to location of loop-player
				apply speed 1 without any particles to loop-zombie for 10 seconds
				if block below last spawned zombie is stone or deepslate or gravel:
					chance of 25%:
						kill the last spawned zombie
			
every 30 seconds in "world":
	loop all players:
		loop zombies in radius 75 of loop-player:
			set path targets of loop-zombie-1 to location of loop-player
			apply speed 2 without any particles to loop-zombie-1 for 10 seconds
			block below loop-zombie is stone or deepslate or gravel:
				chance of 25%:
					kill the loop-zombie

Im trying to avoid looping often, because it lags the server quite a lot. If you didn't get it already
I am trying to make it so zombies will start to pathfind towards the player as lag free as possible, but after
hours and hours this is the only one that works. Now I am a beginner at skript stuff and I don't know
many code languages. I have to loop the zombie every 30 seconds because they will only pathfind for like 3 seconds
and I have to keep making them pathfind. Now If I looped the zombies every 3 seconds it would kill the
server with lag in and with some players online in just 10 minutes or so. Any negative/positivie/negative feedback would
be kinda nice. Thanks. Bye

There isn't (almost) any lag while there is only 1 player online.. could this be because the zombies have to pathfind to multiple players and its confusing it somehow and causing lag? I have no clue why this is the case, but I do know that looping tends to cause lag. I would like for anyone to comment on my post! Thank you

most likely zombies are pathfinding to multiple people at 1 time causing lag try with 2 then carry on from there and find the point of lag then respond i might be able to help

I kind of fixed it!. THANK YOU for replying. I just made it so it loops a random player out of all players
and then sets the path targets of the zombies to that player. It's not the same as the zombies going for all of the players at the same time, but it's something

Great np for posting i saw it and thanks for clarifying its random but with alot of players theres going to be zombies pathfinding to more than 1 player at a time if thats how the skript is working which is what i see

It’s hard for me to do this kind of analysis, I’m more of a simple analysis of literature. Here I love to study various literary works, read to them criticism and additions that can be. For example I found here a literary analysis of "Only Daughter" by Sandra Cisneros https://samplius.com/free-essay-examples/literary-analysis-of-only-daughter-by-sandra-cisneros/ here you can also look and read. The original story itself is gorgeous, but the discussion of the story is also important. So if you want to better understand the read I recommend to read these essays.
