You fixed the size of the camel?!
Thank you so much!

I got no idea if this has anything to do with my video, but I guess I'm not going to stop pointing out issues on my YouTube Channel.

Both times I have done this it has been addressed in an update shortly after, so I should probably keep going just in case.
 
Thanks a lot!

Re-scaled the Bactrian Camel and adjusted its offset to correct its size
Great news! It looks much better now. Here both animals have 58 % size:

Fixed an issue where the Koala would not climb trees in its habitat
Perfect timing, I just started building a koala habitat!

Fixed the Amur Leopard Juvenile always having its mouth open
Good job! Hopefully the Formosan black bears are next: https://issues.frontierstore.net/issue-detail/50163
 
I'm yet to see it in game, but simply knowing the team has revisited the Camel is such an appriciated update here regardless of the result. I know many others are bound to be over the moon to see this allocation of effort, so I've no doubt it was worth the time and energy in principle alone.

I don't want to push our luck.. but I think I've seen a few other model size comments floating around too, largely for a few base game animals, if re-sizing alone isn't a world ending ammount of work..👀.

The rest of these fixes are greatly appriciated too! Planet Zoo was my first Frontier game in truth, but I've been so impressed by the refining of things over time. Other studios never have given me such confidence in that area outside of MMOs. When I get the time, I may actually check out JW/PC even though they're a bit of a leap away from the thematics I'm usually drawn too.This is also why I have no issue buying each and every DLC on launch day too.

All the best to the team!! Y'all should get some time in the Summer sun whilst it's around, for those based here in the UK! 👍🌻☀️
