Hayo Zookeepers!

Thank you to everyone who has been playing the Africa Pack and 1.6 Update, we're getting some really impressive builds coming in with the new content and love to see it! We'd like to extend an extra-special thank you to everyone who has submitted reports & helped bring issues to our attention. Today, we have another update for you that should address the bulk of these (such as mesh now being properly see-through!). As always, please keep sharing your feedback, reports, creations, and more! 💚

Alongside the other fixes, we also have resolved one particular UI bug that is included below, but felt it was worth sharing the issue tracker link for it too so you're all aware as this one was having a big impact on your zoos: https://issues.frontierstore.net/issue-detail/40828.

I know it has been reported so I just checked in with my besties (the dev team) and they are looking into it so don't fret, it's on the radar!

Had a look for this one, can't see any instances of it on the issue tracker, please do submit it there and then the team will be able to pick it up! Could you also share a save for this with community@frontier.co.uk? I'll be able to ping that over to them once its on the tracker too ❤️

Still no fix for the trade-centre-marking-all-stored-animals-origin-from-the-same-zoo-parse-error-whattheehell-bug. 😢
It's driving me nuts since the aquatic pack brought it into the game, so I guess I'll give up playing franchise until this is fixed.

Fix the underwater feeder bug causing the game to crash and crash. I stopped my project to make an aquarium precisely because of this bug

Corrija o bug do alimentador subaquático, que faz o jogo travar e fechar. Parei meu projeto de fazer um aquário justamente por causa deste bug :(

Thanks, finally I will be able to build a proper Memorial for my Albino Chimpanzees instead of using the Chimpanzee Wall Decoration from the Main Game Africa Set😂

Does this also fix it for the Trade Center? I remember putting all Baby Gharials into the Trade Center to move them to a not connected Enclosure and when I selected all, with Filter, the Game wanted to move every Trade Center Animal there

I've read multiple Threads about this on Steam. Try to move it further away from the Barrier. This might help

Hey Britches, can you jump on a ticket with support for this one? The devs and I have been discussing it but can't quite pinpoint it so that would really help a lot to see if we can get it resolved for you!

This should be fixed too as far as I'm aware!

(Devs can't get rid of me today I'm sliding into their DMs every 5 minutes, they love me really though ✨)
