Conservation credits

[Laura_91]

I just accidentally hovered over my cc. And it says you can earn cc in the following way. I get all of them but have well educated guests.

Does anyone know how that works?

I'm not sure I get what you mean ... Do you mean you want to know how to get educated guests? That can be achieved via the guest facilities for education, like speakers, education boards, zoo guides etc.

No, I know that. On the bottom its shows your money and your conservation credits. If you hover your cursor over you conservation credits it tells you ways to get them eg sell animals, greet players etc. One of them says about educate guests. I'll get a photo soon if I can, give me about an hour

Hm, but doesn't it just mean that you have high education values in your zoo? The general / average education level rises with the guests using more and more education stations during their stay ...? Do you mean: You have educated guests, but you don't get the credits?
If the latter is the case, I'm afraid I can't help you. I only play sandbox (no cc). Maybe you get points if the inspector is visiting and gives you high ranking for education level?

I've played since beta but never paid attention to this. I've never noticed cc going up without doing any of the other options. By reading this it sounds like if your guests are well educated you some how receive cc for it

I've never tested this, so complete speculation here....

Might it be possible that the amount of cc that you get for releasing animals is higher if your guests are well educated about them? So more of an indirect contributor rather than getting a certain amount for each education level?

Again, just speculating..... But I know that things like stars and appeal rankings and even money spent on donations is connected to education in this indirect algorithmic way, so maybe the release points are too?

I genuinely have no idea. It's confused me to be honest. I wouldn't even know how to test it
