Planet Zoo - Update 1.0.3
- Thread starter Paul_Crowther
- Start date
Very, very promising Frontier. Great work.
Thank you Frontier, for some reason, I wish this would have been an addon for Planet Coaster, but I guess we cannot get our cake and eat it too. I put over 1000hrs in PC so I figure this one will be close too. I hope you give us some very cool DLC (more entertainment stuff), I'll get it all. I would really appreciate it if you could you please concentrate on a performance patch, please. The 1.0.3 patch on steam was over 5 gigs, just out of curiosity, what/why files were so large?
Thanks for the update, now the game don't crash at first startup. I think it would be interesting to have an option to decide which notifications to activate and which not.
It works for me in sandbox
Since I got to play 3 h yesterday (after the update was done) I have to point some things out.
That’s all for now.
im really happy wirh the work is be made by the team and I appreciate the bug fixes. Thanks for the hard work
Keep it up!
- feeding costs are higher for me - which wouldn’t be a problem IF
- I would have my normal 15-20k refunds costs
- after the update my refunds are exploded so that I lost 600 k cash in 5 years.
- refund costs of 100-200 k aren’t capable with the 200 k feeding costs I have as well
- note: I had no trouble 2 days ago with refunds or complains about being thirsty or hungry - I had 2 shops each
- now I placed down 8 shops each and they are still complaining.
- some guests leave red (and want refund) with 3 positive thoughts
- I had some visitors walking on stuff paths but I just moved them down the path and it was fine.
- the mating notifications are fine for me
- the franchise drop down menu in the Trade Center (market) is still not sorted from A to Z in German language
That’s all for now.

Keep it up!A few things that were missed.
I love the game. But please continue to fix these issues that cause it to be a headache instead of a relaxing activity!
- Mechanics won't go into habitats unless it is just inside the door to fix the barrier. So if you try to have a solar panel or water treatment inside a large habitat, they will not fix it. As soon as they enter the habitat they turn around and leave and their status says "fleeing". This is very frustrating, as it is not always possible to have the water and power on the perimeter of a habitat. So for now, I am having to delete failed power and water facilities, and repurchase them every time they fail.
- Keepers are extremely inefficient in how they refill food stations. I have a very large grassland habitat with multiple species in the same habitat. I have hired 4 keepers to tend to this habitat since it is so large. First, only one of the four keepers services the habitat at any one time. Secondly, I watched for 15 minutes tonight as the poor keeper on duty walked back and forth and back and forth to various feeding stations to fill them. Needless to say his status complained of exhaustion. Why do they not fill the various feeders in the order they encounter them?? I should be able to have a large enclosure with multiple animals and have the keepers be able to handle their needs without exhausting themselves. In addition, why do they only fill select feeding stations and leave the others empty? This really needs some work.
- Staff room perks continually reset themselves to "none".
- My monorail sporadically glitches out where the guests will either not get off the ride, or the entrance gate will not open to let them on the ride. This results in very angry guests and has brought down my guest happiness rating quite a bit.

.I just deleted the connection to the other side so people had no reason to go on the path, for now it's a solution
Anyone else have a problem with light sources like light posts not being casted on the ground ? I made a ticket for it. What happens is if you load the game you saved and it becomes night then no light is being casted on the ground. If btw i remove the lamp and then undo the removal then the light works but i would have to do this with every light everytime you reload the game. Was never an issue before this patch. It started happening after i chosen the new power everything setting.. for some reason power everything does not power light sources casted on the ground it seems. I hope this gets fixed.

I hope this gets fixed along with the other new bugs before the weekend
Personally I don't think the light source is an urgent bug.. If they fix this after a few weeks, that's should be fine as well. It's not a game-breaking bug..
Same goes for the ambience speakers, it's cool that they fixed it but it's not that big of a deal.
I hope they are able to fix/address some urgent (and new) bugs soon: Some people aren't able to access their zoos, visitors on workers paths, the (button) lag with the animal market, the animal filters.. Or the instability after the new update - i saw a lot of posts about crashing..
I'm still getting the franchise server connection loss. 
I think it's quite better than before but still annoying. What happened since the release, that this problem occured? The 2 Days after release and before the first hotfix were just fine without any connection problems.

I don't know how much Money I've lost before because of Refunds but it's a lot of Money that I now loose because of it and I don't know how to prevent it from happening. Before the Update I didn't have financial Problems. Now I'm still far away from 0 but I come closer to it in a noticeable Speed.
I guess I'm not going to play again untill they fix it

I had one RIng Tailed Lemur in the Madagascar career level stand on the food platform full with food and say it was starving.
I sent it to quarantine and waited it confirmed clean bill of health, sent it back and it seemed to eat and drink fine. No other issues of hungry or thirsty animals
I think they changed something for the Animals. I just noticed that I can have now 3 Hippos in a Enclosure that was before the Update only big enough for 2
And now my Hippopotamuses are fighting because of too many Animals of one Gender in the Enclosure even though the Zoopedia mentions a Maximum-Group of 30 (29 males/29 females)

Are you sure it doesn't say 29 females /1 male max for a mixed group (30 in total) ? In that case, you can't have multiple males and females. However, without females you could have a group of multiple males. It often works like that in the game.
