Amazing fixes, thank you.

I would like to report a bug here, since I had some trouble logging into issue tracker. Whenever I zoom onto dingo using Water Pool Enrichment item, the dingo dissapears, it appears back when I zoom out. Saw a ticket about this in the issue tracker, but could not contribute to it, so I will just leave it here in case someone else experience this:

These are some great tweaks and fixes, thank you!
As for feedback: The temperature and lighting issues were discussed to a longer extend in the forums and I'm sure everyone would have relaxed a bit more, when people knew the Devs where looking into it. The communication I loved so much about Frontier when Planet Zoo launched really changed for the worse. Sometimes it feels like we only hear from you guys when there is a new DLC and in between there is nothing. There wasn't even a post about the new cheat code before players mentioed it, still no word about the soundtrack. But what is the worst part for me is, that we don't get updated anymore if the harder bugs are already being worked on or not.

I would personally really appreciate if we heard more of you all again in the future and not only "here is an update" or "here is a DLC". We all know you work hard on the game, but in the past we had at least sometimes an idea on which bugs or features.

Thanks for your feedback, and I appreciate you feel that way. For bigger updates we usually only communicate around update time, but I understand that you'd want to see some more interaction on the forums. We'll work on being more active on the forums, and we will also be welcoming a new team member soon, which will hopefully mean some more discussion time for us :)

Those two additions will be really helpful, however low-key they might seem! I'm excited about this. Thanks again for another great update!

Seems like the game might finally be fixed. I'll keep my fingers crossed. but I'm very hopeful and looks promising. Things are finally getting fixed, janitors are cleaning up, vets are taking care of animals, zoo keepers are feeding animals and cleaning habitats/exhibits.

Thanks, I've contributed to it. I wish more People would use the Issue Tracker. I'm still waiting for someone to contribute to my Report about Orangutans and Gorillas being unable to use Ropes

The string we're referring to is relevant to the UI. Community members were reporting that the Plains Zebra, Giant Panda and Gharial albinos was missing the animal colour description in their animal genetic tab. This should now be fixed. Hope this helps! :)

Still bugged: It seems zoo keepers and vet staff are still having a hard time reaching the staff bldgs. Even when I stick a new zoo keeper hut next to the habitat. Also, same goes to mechanics fixing things. There getting stuck. :(

Is there any possible way that Planet Zoo could get an update for new Barriers like a wooden fence like what people keep cattle and horses behind. I’m sorry I just feel like the Game needs an update that would give us some new Barriers.

I was able to work around the bugs a bit and got my zoo some what back to normal finally. Game still somewhat bugged though. We really need a zoo keeper/vet/janitor/mechanic mode where we can do everything ourselves.

We just got new animals and we won't see new animals probably until Nov. or Dec.

I think that would be the most realistic option atm. Maybe something with the 1 year anniversary but November/December would be my guess as well.

Like the fix for some recent bugs, saw some people having issues with those = since the update.

The anniversary is in November, of course.

Ironically I only experienced the litter bug just last night. Now it's fixed, so brilliant!
