Hi all,
I went back to PC as it was on my mind, what with the console release, and I was playing around with restaurants and was thinking: 'What could be done better if they were brought over to Planet Zoo?'
Vending machines and ATMs are so much better in PZ that it was actually a sad reminder to find the old mechanics for these items in PC (i.e. that vending machines and ATMs can't be placed on paths freely). So if restaurants make their way into PZ, what would you like to see done a little bit better than their PC iteration?
Here's some things that I thought about:
- Table service replacing the rabbit hole, with guests taking seats in the restaurant area or building and waiting for a vendor to come and take their order. Vendors could then enter a rabbit hole building cube and return with a tray (or cloche if you're fancy) of food. Perks could be attributed to the experience that guests have based on if they have animals within view from their table, as well as the general ambiance you create with scenery and music.
- Some of PC's remaining food/drink brands being restaurant exclusive, to change up what guests are eating and drinking.
- Restaurants needing to be in range of a water pump/ be regularly cleaned (maybe there could be a large bin that needs to be emptied by janitors) so guests don't succumb to food poisoning, maybe throwing up in habitat donation bins.
