Zombie AI is very wonky, AI in general is a bit wonky at the moment, characters don't work very well inside, you need to give them plenty of space to move about in.

Make sure all buildings and stuff that the zombies are getting stuck on has forcesimpleobstacle = 3 in the fpe file. (Archways, slabs etc too)
Turn off physics for anything that you can get away with (like decals, roofs if they're separate etc)
Doors also can be an issue, I would test without doors if you are still getting issues.
And finally if its still happening for some but not others try deleting the zombies and areas that aren't working (I have personally had areas that refuse to work despite being exactly the same as other areas that do... And the only fix I found was to delete it and rebuild )

For the respawner, hard to help as you haven't given any information apart from like cod, are you using mine? What does it do and what do you want it to do differently?
If possible / allowed I would post the code so its easier for people to help.

This should help you out as an example on how to set this up.
