Zombies can be in one of three states:

Wandering: Walk in a straight line in a random one of the four orthogonal directions. Zombies start in this state.
Follow wall: Go counterclockwise around the perimeter of a wall. A zombie will enter this state if it touches a wall (i.e. a tile that is solid to monsters) while in the wandering state.
Target: Move towards the nearest targetable sprite. A zombie enters this state when it comes within a certain distance of a targetable sprite. The zombie will leave this state and go back to the wandering state if there is no longer a targetable sprite within another (slightly larger) distance.
