How exactly zombies work and interact with survivors?

Hi, I wanna know how exactly the zombies are supposed to work.

I mean that in many matches, I saw a zombie wandering relatively close to me, let's say he was going out the shack while i was in the middle of the shack. I was there, and he was going out. But at the moment i touched the generator in the shack, he turned back right away and came to me. I stopped repairing the gen, and he turned back again to keep going out the shack.

Now, what I wanna know is: do making actions like repairing, cleansing, healing attract zombies? And I know that some add ons to Nemesis increase detection radius of the zombies. So what it exactly mean? Do zombies go to places where a surv is doing a specific action within a certain radius basekit and it gets increased with the addons? And when zombies are not in that radius they just wander randomly until they get in that radius?

Because like I said, the zombie in the shack was clearly not "noticing" me when i wasn't repairing. At the very moment I was touching the gen, the zombie turned back to me.
