I haven't tried but I think you can use the select object block and choose to select all players. Then place another select object block and choose filter by distance from the location of the zombie. And then use something from the AI option in entity action to make the zombie agro on the selected player (I have no idea what is even in the entity action block since I barely use it, all I know is that there is something about AI). I hope this helps :)

Entity Action: Set Target (should be in the Goals category)

Sorry for late reply, I see you didn't mark any of these as a solution so here are 2 templates;
You have to put these Templates in Loops (with a wait maybe like 5? for LagSlayer) (do NOT put them directly in a Repeat, instead call them using Call Function (the Call Function block has to be inside a repeat) because if you do place them, the closing bracket of the Repeat disappears and/or it might not fit)

oh yeah sorry about that, I copied the broken template, but it's fixable by a set variable after the Filter Distance, you place a variable called `target` and is LOCAL, and you also put a text called `%selected` in the 2nd slot and it should be fixed (ik you already done it but for people that need help)
