Escape point thru concrete wall....

[Arrakai]

Can anyone please explain this??? That is a solid 4 meter tall concrete barrier wall!! Don't even know how to fix it. The wall in question is part of the habitat barrier.... And it's concrete, wich is not climable. (tried replacing that piece of barrier, didn't work)

Did I accidentally get a ghost mandrill?

Weird. Do all Mandrils have this problem or just this one? If it's just him, I'd put him into quarantine. Sometimes they are bugged and will be fixed there.

Was all of them. I think i had the same problem with my Lemurs. It didn't show an escape point, but they kept escaping seemingly thru the barrier wall, as there were no escape points in their habitat. But I think I figured out the problem. The barrier walls that was causing the problems for both Mandrill and Lemur were both 15 meters long. After I changed that to 5 meter instead I didn't get the Escape point problem with the mandrils and my lemurs stopped escaping. Sucks thou, cus 5 meter barrier walls in the viewing area looks ugly

Did you change the terrain after you've placed the barrier?

Sometimes if you do so the barrier doesn't reach fully to the ground anymore. But to the look of it you did not alter the terrain?

It can also happen if you placed the path after the barrier with flatten terrain.

If you move that corner post of the barrier just a little bit so it replaces them effectively. Maybe the problem is solved after that?

are there any climbable structures on the wall?
I am asking because i had a similar problem: made a big habitat, divided it into 2 one side for bonobos the other for chimpanzies. I built a huge shelter in the middle, was divided by a wall, they could not escape to the other side, but the game told me they can. the problem was i had climbable structures on that middle wall and copy and pastet them to the otherside, somehow they where connected. I ended up deleting them on one side and placing them in a different way now it all is fine.
I had the barrier hidden right in that wall, but it was of no help it was the "connection thru wood stone and barrier walls.

Didn't change terrain or path, and I also tried replacing the wall with an exact same one (15meters long) wich didn't work. And I didn't have any climable structures near the wall (and concrete barriers are not climable (+ they didn't climb it, just walked right thu). Seems the problem was that the barrier wall was so long (15m). After I changed it to 5m x3 instead I didn't have any problems
