Dear Frontier,
In Planet Coaster you gave us two wonderful build sets: custom TV screens and custom billboards. Both would let us add our own image files to Planet Coaster, but one was back-lit while the other was not.
Please, add these pieces to Planet Zoo! I know it might seem like they fit better in a theme park game than a zoo game, but there are two places where they would be absolute game changers.
1) backdrops -- many animals, especially smaller animals, and especially in colder/temperate climates, live in indoor habitats. Often these habitats have their back wall painted to look like the animal's natural environment. Right now, I can get decent results by using a pale blue plaster wall for the sky and adding rocks foliage and clouds to spice things up. But in real life there are some cool examples with painted foliage, etc; this would be a great addition to Planet Zoo. We have so many creative players -- they'll have wonderful backdrop tilesets for every biome in days!
2) Education panels! Currently even if you use custom screens the educational panels end up looking rather "samey". We should be able to insert our own pictures, or to make diagrams and charts in external image editing software to load into our zoos.
The tech clearly exists since this feature was in PlanCo. Please, add it to PlanZoo as well!
