animals

I've posted this before relating to female animals only but I've experimented today and noticed that my animals GAIN texture when I box my latest animals (about 10 Deer & Swans) an then lose it when unboxed...But they still have no texture when I box all 50 of my crane??

Okay so I read an older post about this and experimented and it seems to be the same thing for me now. At first I thought it was bcuz my zoo was too big but I only have like 200 animals compared to others who had this problem and had like 800+ animals. SO. The problem seems be my NEW female...

Okay so with the new Eurasia pack all I want really is the swans yet I have to buy the full pack to get them and the other animals clog up my list....I thought it would be a good idea if the devs did it where you could buy each DLC animal seperately for lets say £1-£2 each? Bcuz lets be real...

After adding bats and sloths - and apart from the birds that would logically have their place there - what other mammals or reptiles could we consider in the Walktrough exhibits? In order to think about this list, I propose some constraints: 1) These animals have stereotypical behaviors (often...

Let's play a little game, to pass the time until the next dlc. The Goal With the minimal number of zoo visits, how could you get to see all habitat species from the game in real life? The Rules: The game is on a species level, not subspecies level (no need for HBB) Must be the correct...

Here's the template to fill your own animal group bingo, see example in comments: Aquatic Desert Grassland Taiga Temperate Tropical Tundra Africa Eurasia Oceania North America South America The point is to pick an...

I know that the marine pack has been discussed alot. alot of people seem to think that it would be controversial maybe it would be. but I mean the polar bear is in the game why dont they just do the same to orca's just make their habitat size requirment huge and make it hard to get em happy. i...

I'm talking about animals which are extremely widespread in zoos (as in found in hundreds of zoos) but are not in the game. This year was great for this animal category, where we got: ASCO Capybara Raccoon Emu Wallaby Species like these allow to fill gaps in realistic areas that tend to have...

Just like real life, we cannot expect each and every known species kept in zoos in the past to be included in Planet Zoo. Even if you cross out obvious animals that won't make it such as baleen whales, cryptids, and species extinct for good, there is still a lot of animals left with only a few...

You get to decide the roster for a full on aquatic expansion. The rules You get 30 animal slots All animals are valid, from tiny fish, to sharks to cetaceans to otters, long as they are (mostly) aquatic For the sake of the exercise, corals, anemones, sponges and the like are not considered...

Africa Aardwolf African Bullfrog(Exhibit) African Civet African Clawed Frog(Exhibit) African Dwarf Crocodile African Fish Eagle(Walk-Through) African Jacana African Leopard African Sacred Ibis African Spurred Tortoise Armadillo Girdled Lizard(Exhibit) Aye-Aye Bat-Eared Fox Bateleur...

So, there are 3 regions which are still lacking compared to what's expected. These are South America, Oceania, and the Middle East. Of these, the middle east gets a lot less attention due to it being a part of a continent and not a continent in itself. So let's talk a bit about the middle east...

So, to pass the time while we're all waiting for potential news of a new DLC to arrive ... what animal additions in the previous DLC packs did you initially not care about and wouldn't even have included yourself in the game, but ended up surprisingly becoming one of your favorite animals in the...

Okay so I read an old tweet from the devs saying to unlock the workshop items in franchise, you have to research the items used in that build, for example items used from the Arctic pack. SO. I literally have researched everything in the mechanic section, everything has a gold medal and says...

Frontier has never been predictable with which animals they use to headline a pack, but still it's clear from looking at the meta-wishlist that the top 20 are now mostly composed of animals which are B-tier at best for general audiences, if they even heard of most of them. So, the question is...

Here you can say any fanmade pack that you would hope to be in the game someday. (Even tho it is unlikely) Here are 2 examples! Everglades Pack: North American River Otter, Great Blue Heron, American Black Bear, White-Tail Deer, and Coral Snake Cats and Dogs Animal Pack: Ethiopian Wolf, Asian...

Only being able to use 2 filters when I'm looking at a zoo with a lot of animals in it is pretty limiting in my opinion. For instance with animals that are all in the same habitat but there can only be one alpha male/female I would like to be able to sort by location/species, sex and maturity so...

Guys, I have great news and excitement! The animal scenery pack is my new DLC template featuring 9 animals and 300 architecture and scenery! Here are my DLCs for the 2022 timeline like the 2020 timeline. Rainforest Animal Scenery Pack (Spring 2022) Capybara Maned Wolf Red River Hog...

The way the animals are transported is fine, those helicopters are great, but how everything in life has something negative or has disadvantages and in this case it is slow, annoying, tedious and takes time, yes, you can move a hatchery of dinosaurs but with the size limit of the maps or when...

The status check is a simple but fun mechanic it is great to drive a car and go to an enclosure and check the dinosaurs although unfortunately I cannot say the same about an aviary or lagoon, you cannot control the aerial or marine drone, taking advantage of the request To Frontier that adds...

In my opinion it does not make sense that it cannot be "seen" with the fences, a dinosaur inside an enclosure would not have to be conditioned to the fact that visitors can "see" it with a viewpoint, tour or monorail. Visitors cannot see them even though a fence should provide vision. That the...

There are a wide variety of animals which I love, each with different needs, each with a wide variety of fur colors and patterns and some inspired by the movies. However there are two things Frontier adds to the game. VARIETY OF INDIVIDUAL SIZES I suggest that the individuals have different...

Animals that would be fun to have. Exhibits: -Some kind of ant farm set-up. Siafu/driver ants (Africa) would be pretty cool as an exhibit animal, but so would bullet ants (S. America). Then again, South America is very over-represented in PZ when it comes to exhibit animals, so I would...

Here is a link to @random goat 's Meta Wishlist. I thought it's be nice to have a taxonomical analysis to see which groups people want to expand, and I picked the animals from the meta-wishlist which have >15 votes. Animals which are crossed are already in the game. If this catches...

I asked this on Discord but was ignored (😑) so here I am. Can someone please tell me why I can't use Habitats I've subscribed to from the Workshop, in Franchise? I have all the DLC and have done all the Mechanical research?

Currently i'm busy building a new zoo called Brighton Zoo. Started playing again after the announcement of the North-America DLC and got some ideas to create on Planet Zoo. The idea is to built the Zoo in a couple of different regions, for example I started with 'North America' and 'South...

Dear Frontier Games, My name is John Schultz and I'm an enormous Zoo Tycoon/Planet Zoo fan who just has some ideas of content I'd love to see in the game. While I know it looks like a lot, remember that GTA 5 came out in 2013 and is still getting new DLC so keep that in mind. As long...

Here is a modern biome map based on the WWF classification: Here is a map of the PZ roster based on the below mentioned color categories: Credit to the maps goes to @call me Omi Color category system for regions: Grey Category - Regions that have very few zoo relevant species (0-2), and...

Just wanted to get people thought or ideas of what's coming next to Planet Zoo. I'd like to keep this thread fairly realistic of what could actually come to the game. Please if you leave pack ideas, follow Frontier's format. If it's a theme pack, add your plant and building set ideas if you have...

Heyy everyone, this is my first post on the Frontier Forums so please be gentle with me 😁 I am currently recreating my local-ish Wildlife Park in Planet Zoo and in the process, discovered that there are some features missing from Planet Zoo that, if added, would make recreating real zoos and...

I want to create a series of guides of various infographics and idea charts to make it easier for people to plan their zoos. This is the first installment, animals by country, for helping people creating areas based on specific countries in their zoos. I split the list by Continents, with all...

Is it just me or do others feel we need more ungulates. I may just be being biased but I love ungulates and having mixed species enclosures. When looking at actual zoological facilities, it is common to see so many animals kept with ungulates. We have a fair amount of African ungulates but where...

I have an idea. It would be nice to have the option to automate certain events in game. One of my biggest grievances with the game is how challenging it can be to focus on a task you are undertaking. You are constantly interrupted by notifications of events that need addressing, e.g. inbreeding...

I thought we could congregate all ideas for new easy enrichment items in one place for the devs to see: The criteria for an easy to implement enrichment item: It can be applied to animals already in the game It requires no new animations/easy to implement animations write your suggestions...

As with the other game's big DLC packs (except the Aquatic and Arctic Packs in their unique ways), this pack focuses on an entire continent, rather than a specific region of that continent like the Southeast Asian Animal Pack. Because of this, it would be something that contains 5 animals...

Hey everyone! Why is it so hard to make flying animals in 3D simulation games? Can't they move/fly like all the other animals in game? Can someone please tell me why they can't make it that easy? :)

Been playing planet zoo for a long time now and whilst I still enjoy its like everyone there is things I would love to see in the future. And I would like to hear everyone else’s input! Firstly animals I would like to see would be •java rhino •Przewalski’s horse •elephant seal .pacific walrus...

Hello. If I was to put this long letter simply. I am suggesting that the game should have a strong base of local animals for various areas - but mainly for Europe, because that is the area I am interested in. No zoo works without including several native animals and birds - they are not just...

I do appreciate Frontier's incentive to include as many suitable biomes as possible to the new animals they add in contrast to the very limiting biome suitability options we have for the base game animals, but some choices lately have been really out of place. I am talking about the Colombian...

I made an Abyssinian ground hornbill icon, look! This is for you guys!
