Most Wanted Non-Animal Additions Before Support Ends

Thought I'd leave feedback for my most wanted additions to the game, that don't involve new species. I of course welcome others to use this space for their own wishlists. I might edit this a bit later, but I'm sure my top choices will stay the same. Please and thank you Frontier!

6. Improved movement - If possible, the way animals swim, and get from point A to point B while climbing, could use a lot of smoothing out. There's still tons of floating and popping about.

5. Smaller and flexicolour versions of some enrichment items - It feels weird, for instance, that I can't have something like the foraging wall, tree forager, and hammock for my raccoons. Even if it'd be too much work to actually create new animations and functionality for them, maybe smaller decorative versions of them would be possible?

4. More furniture, animal signs, and other human items - Players bring up the signs a lot, because it can be hard to find a consistent theme for animals that share an area. I'd like to add that we could really use smaller versions of most signs. More decor and furniture for human areas would be a treat.

3. More (non African) giftshop items - The giftshop items seem entirely safari themed so far. You can't make a polar or woodlands themed giftshop if you want to add plushies and such, and I think it's worth adding more options.

3. More variation in real foliage, especially leafless and broken trees - Some trees especially could use smaller versions and different shapes, and variation in fallen logs and tree trunks is sorely missing from the game. Logs/trunks/branches/roots could really use a flexicolour option, so we can frankenstein them together. It's also crazy we only have ONE moss-covered log.

2. Flexicolour versions of older construction items and the old rocks - There was a time before making almost everything flexicolour was common practice. So now we have a lot of great building pieces that should have colour-changing options but don't. And I think we'd all love a flexicolour version of the original set of rock models.

1. More rocks and FAKE trees, branches, logs, roots, etc - And we could actually, really use more rock models altogether, and especially more fake foliage like those rock trees we have. Making indoor spaces, especially tropic themed vivariums, nocturnal houses, etc, doesn't feel right without lots of winding trunks and branches to add everywhere. Similar to what I said about flexicolour plant parts. And fake leaves for the top of fake trees would be especially useful for kiddie areas!

So beautiful, but so hard to make.... for now!

I love all of your requests. I don't think Frontier will bring us much new gift shop items, foliage and enrichment stuff, but honestly? When support ends, THAT would be my dream for modders to do. I really really hope more people get into modding after support ends and concentrate on these things more.
 
A gridded mesh building set is the one single thing I would pick. The other thing is gift shop items that reflect the diversity of the zoos we can build - especially Australasian and European animals and items.
