🐾 Planet Zoo - Update 1.11 coming 18 Oct 🐾

These exhibit animal updates alone are amazing. While I do hope that we can one day get a wider variety of sizes, these are an excellent start.

I think the population management mechanic should be added to the habitat animals whenever possible.

I think the exhibit sizes as outlined in this doc would be the best
 
There seem to be some very interesting things.

I hope the beautiful novelty of the educator exhibit demonstrations and the new focus on them may mean more show animals to be released and the possibility to modify the squares of size according to the animals.

The new biome skins are very interesting but it is not clear to me if we can really create unique customizable styles of terrain...

not new biome skins, its skirts and means the backgrounds of the maps. We can now change them out with new different ones
 
Who knew I'd actually be excited about using exhibit animals now. I hate the detailed management of exhibit species so I never played with them, except the long-lived ones like snakes that I would prompty put on anticonceptives so I wouldn't have to worry about them ever again. Now we can manage them properly I'm happy to start using them more as I don't have to micromanage them all the time.
 
I love several of these!

I can't wait to see piebaldism expand to lots of other species! Awesome!

Exhibit demonstrations sound amazing and they will finally bring more life to the exhibit species!

More backgrounds for our maps is wonderful, thank you!

But best of all: the Exhibit Management tab!!! I have been WAITING for this specific update for so long I am extatic that it is finally here! FINALLY ❤️ Less micromanagement, THANK YOU! As zoo managers we should be able to delegate tasks and set regulations, and now we finally can! 🤩

I cannot wait for the Habitat Management tab that will undoubtedly arrive in a future update (right? Thanks in advance!!!).

Until the Habitat Management update comes in the future, I will consider this the best update so far! (y)❤️
 
So pleased that exhibit animals are getting love in this update - I always love seeing the little things in the real zoos I visit, so anything that improves them in-game is such a welcome addition.
 
"During Talks, an Educator will proceed to showcase them to guests, before resuming the talk as normal. Educators will either hold them one-handed, two-handed, or on their shoulder depending on species, so play around and see how your favorites are held! "...Does this shoulder thing give me hope for birds or little monkeys playing with educators? :oops:
 
A new Terrain-Tool? To build Ramps? i LOVE it! i've spend hours to create a ramp for paths or animals that works :D
Exhibit Management? Thats also awesome! i think everyone knows the struggle with these things. you put one or two exhibits down on the start of your new franchise to earn some money. After many hours, the exhibits still exists but there are so many other things to do and the exhibits got forgotten. Either you have 1 male, 1 female and their population explodes and there are protesters everywhere or you put 2 animals of the same sex in it and after few years the exhibit is empty because they died of old age.

And its the perfect timing for an exhibit upgrade patch! i want to build a reptile house in my new franchise...so I'll wait for the patch! <3 Thank you!
 
Wow, this is a shockingly good update. I figured we were past the point of heavy hitters like these after the relatively lackluster past few. I'm so glad that exhibits are getting so much love. It's not the size variations everyone was hoping for, of course, but it's basically everything else you could ask for. Auto-management will be a godsend for franchise players. I just hope the demonstration thing gets expanded to other common ambassador species in the future, such as binturongs, as well as if we get things like armadillos, sloths, tamanduas, porcupines, procyonids...

Piebald is exciting. Hope the new color morphs don't stop there. I want to again bring up the fact that an albino red panda was discovered after the game's launch ;)

Biome skirts sound tremendous. I'm dying to see the new options. And I think ramps are being hugely undervalued so far - they're ALWAYS one of my biggest struggles when attempting terrain variation.

Overall this update is phenomenal and I'm all the more excited for the stream.
 
I'm curious about the escapes: y'all mentioned knocking over trashcans and eating trash, but what else will the animals do out of their enclosures?
