Where do you see them? Can you share a link? Thinking about getting back into Minecraft and wondering what platform is best for pc modded and non-modded...?
The java edition for pc is the only version of Minecraft you can mod it is also arguabley the best though both bedrock and java are very close to complete parity with one major advantage bedrock having over java being multiplayer
 
Hey guys I got a little medical related question, I got a hard bb sized bump in my neck, you can't see is and you can only feel it of you locate it and pinch it, it is completely painless but hasn't changed shape and it seems stuck in one place. I know it probably isn't cancer or something over the top but I would still like opinions. One of my parents think it is a gland and the other belive it's fatty tissue (which is what I believe it is) but I would like second opinions. Everyone around me thinks I am overreacting (which I probably am) but I still bothers me alot and unless I get sick I ain't going to the doctor till autumn. So what do y'all think.

Edit: it has been here for about 2 months, but probably longer

I would strongly advise seeing a doctor, if this is something that concerns you, you should have it checked as a professional.

While it being small, pliable, moveable, and hasn’t grown are all good signs, if you are that worried about it you might as well get a medical opinion.

See a doctor, maybe a dermatologist. It could be some kind of cyst or lipoma.
 
In the last couple weeks I haven't play any Planet Zoo. After the last Zoolympic Games round I fell into my usual motivation lack that I have every few months but this time it's more difficult to come back. I opened my Biopark a few days ago and realized how much is still missing. Well, habitat wise I'm on a good way to finish it but I neglected almost all the in between areas and especially the area around my African boat trip is so bare and ugly. And you can clearly see the differences between the very first areas I built (like the boat trip and the Arctic area) and the newer areas I built in the last 1,5 years, I'm starting to dislike more and more of the old areas. So, I got a little breakdown. The problem is this zoo, even though it's on cloud gaming, is slowly running into severe perfomance issues. I could probably finish the last habitats but then I still have the problem with all the unfinished in between areas and the old kind of outdated habitats.
Now I'm thinking about just starting a new zoo but giving up Biopark after such a long time (I started it almost 4 years ago!) would be also really a pity.
What should I do? :(

I had the same feeling at the start of this year aswell. Wasnt really happy anymore with my zoo and kinda wanted to redo it. And after giving it some thought i pulled through and did that and im MUCH happier with the new version.
Given i wasnt really that far into the build and it was far from being an entire zoo, so it probably was a way easier decision than what youre facing.

At the end of the day the only one who can say what the right way is is you
 
Does anyone know why mods are still showing up in my Planet Zoo Zoopedia when I deleted them all from my ovldata folder? I was trying to set my game back to its vanilla state because I was having issues but the mod animals are still showing up as Zoopedia entries for some reason?

Thank you. I finally decided to at least try to finish it. And before I build the new habitats I want to tidy up the areas I don't like.
First of all the island which is surrounded by the boat tour.
Maybe people here can help by giving some ideas what I can do with that area? So far there is only the restaurant and a provisional flamingo habitat and flamingo house which finally need a massive overhaul. For the rest I don't know yet what to do.

Second thing that bothers me is the boat tour itself. I started surrounding the edges by adding rockwork but my game will die if I'd continue this. So I'm looking for any other ways how I can cover the steep edges of the river.

1. Never trust internet randos with medical advice, no matter how cool we are, and
2. Go see a doctor.

It's probably a cyst but do not trust me, go and see a doctor. It's worth it for the peace of mind anyway.

Never think that you are overreacting...there is virtually no such thing when it comes to your health. Take it from a cancer survivor :)

Yes, it can happen to anyone and that anyone can, in fact, be you. It still seems impossibly unlucky when it does...but statistically, it's actually not that unlucky. Always check out lumps, bumps, sores, aches, pains, moles, anything even a tiiiny bit out of the ordinary. The earlier you catch it, the better your recovery will be. And again...always simply worth it for the peace of mind.

Thanks for the advice, I am having a hard time convincing my folks to take me and even though I am old enough to drive I am unable to, so I sadly don't think I can get it check super soon, but I will get it checked first thing I go

I also forgot to mention I have allergy, to the point where I need to take a shot every week and talk multiple medications, so it could be a gland, but I will still get it checked if possible.
 
Yeah Idk, like you Hugo, I've been a bit 'off' PZ lately. I don't know what it is. I wonder if the next DLC will reignite it for me, or if I'm nearing the end of my time loving the game. I have had so many good hours...but never been able to commit to a single zoo, and never completed a really big project, except for the ones I did for the Zoolympic Games I guess. I had a Franchise I absolutely loved once but performance killed it. Maybe I peaked with my nocturnal house and now I'm done.

I wonder what the enjoyment arc is for the game. Like, I don't mean this to sound braggy at all, but I'm sure a lot of you will know what I'm talking about when I say that once you become too advanced at building, you're not satisfied anymore with doing less than you know you are capable of. So, if I was to graph it, there is a steep upward trajectory early on as you learn lots of new skills quickly, then the curve crawls up more steadily, then probably plateaus for a while where you're building at a pretty-good-but-not-youtube-good level. Probably a lot of people stay here and get more done in a gaming session, and have a lot of fun with it. But maybe...maybe you train yourself to advance your skills by watching tonnes of content creators and studying RL images and visiting actual zoos for inspo and you take tonnes of photos...then you practice a bit and you feel yourself getting stronger, faster, better, cooler. Absolutely just Daft-Punking at life, and it's super fun for a while, and then! THEN, you do it. You build your Magnum Opus. And you pour your heart and soul into it, and it is glorious. But, oh. Ohhhh dear. You peaked. You peaked girl, you peaked. Sigh. Now it takes you so long to do anything because you gotta be sooo perfect about everything. Because you know you can be, so why settle for less. But yo bro, it slow. Eventually, the gameplay crawls to a halt and you're just spending your life making foliage palettes. And that's no way to live.

Idk, just me?

Okay well take care and keep an eye on it...if there is no change in a month it's prob chill but if you're old enough to drive, you're probably old enough to figure out how to get access to your own doctor and have control of your own body and health 💚

Well I don't want to dive into insane detail but I basically can't, I can't drive (even though I am practicing) due to autism, and I am doing virtual schooling so I can't go to a school nurse, but it has been here for 2 months, probably longer than that, and there is little to no change I notice so I am probably fine, thanks for the advice.

Yeah advancing your building skills is definetly a blessing and a curse at once. Like seeing yourself improve is ofcourse very nice and rewarding, but now your builds take longer the better you get as you put more and more detail and effort in. So suddenly habitats take twice as long as they used to, and what once used to be a quick task is now a big mission haha.

Like i still havent really started on my aquarium despite knowing pretty well what i wanna build, having a more or less finished shell and reference images collected over months this point. Its just that i already now that what i wanna build is gonna take ages so its this daunting task looming over me lol :D

I recommed trying something very different than what you previously did. I started last year of with a wildpark build that was basicly just nature with a couple fences in the middle of nowhere, and now im doing my coastal zoo thats super build up with tons of infrastructure.
If i remember your builds correctly they all were super high budget, so maybe try your hands on a very lowkey/ low budget roadside zoo, rescue or sanctuary to mix things up?
