Update 1.6 coming to Planet Zoo, 22 June 🐻

[Evolution]

Update 1.6 is looking great! I can't wait to see diving bears and look forward to having custom audio finally. Other features are great too!

Habitat cameras! Wohoo! Also, since we are getting a timed scenario in central America, does this hint an America Pack? Maybe?

The reward statue is a Chimpanzee. When we got the Mexico campaign for the Arctic DLC it didn't really make much sense - here's to hoping it's still on track for Africa.

The trailer pieces make me think we’re getting more general backstage zoo pieces which are requested heavily by the community!

I dont think that hints anything at all. We got an European free scenario with Australia pack, Asia free scenario with Aquatic pack and a free scenario in England with the Southeast Asia pack.
Not everything has to be a hint.

Alongside this, we're also adding Deep Swimming for multiple Bears including the following:

• Polar Bear
• Grizzly Bear
• Formosan Black Bear
• Sun Bear

Can you please confirm if they also need 4 meter deep water so that they can dive? I'm already renovating my polar bear habitat to adapt it to the new standards and I'd like to know if I need to hire more workers to dig the water pool deeper. Thanks!

Awesome update. I still hope some day we get eggs in a free update for animals that lay eggs.

By the way, is this a dev button, or is it a new feature?

I believe on one page or more they confirmed depth stays at 4m for now, I'll try to find it

EDIT : Nope, I misread one of the Dev replies. I guess anything goes. But I believe 4m is not bad for bears, especially polar

Well, this is outstanding! Can't wait to see my bears deep diving, the vista points are going to be a huge boon, and the sandbox settings are exactly what I've been wanting for so long! Great work Frontier!

The grizzly bear in the pic looks like it's more than 4m underwater, so I'd guess that the limit still applies.

Polar Bear update and vista points, this is amazing

It seems the Sandbox shovel, i think it's where we can set up the new sandbox settings with the custom presets .

 

[Firestar97]

There's one Thing I've noticed in the Screenshot with the Elephants. The Vista Points are Objects similar to the Animal Talk Points so I would like to know if it is possible to sink them into the Ground or set them as invisible

I think I know who the Frontier People would vote if they would live in the US

This game is getting to have so much depth to it, oh my gourd.

 

[Rusty2000]

One of the best Updates!!! Thank you so much Finally Vista points to liven up areas in the park that are not well attended and a bigger storage ! Fantastic!

The only thing missing now is the very much desired barriers so that visitors no longer walk through scenery or walls ❤

LOVE the diving bears and the trade center and staff options -- the increase to 200 and with the ability to search and filter is helpful!

I also like the ability to continue campaign zoos. That's a good feature!

I'm curious to see whether the increase to 200 for the trade center will also apply for exhibit trading, or if is only for habitat animals. But can test this out fairly quickly in only 8 days!

 

[UNSCSpartin]

any plans to add research to sandbox setting... just a thought

 

[tigris115]

Idea: Have it so that you can have the cameras broadcast to a TV somewhere else where it counts for animal viewing

So if my lions wanna just spend all day in the den, I can have a camera there and people can still see them.

What would be kinda cool too is to have it be like the commercials/advertisement in rct1 and 2 to bring in guests to the park, but instead draw them into the zoo. Guests can watch it on a zoo website or the zoo can host on tv shows with animal abassadors.
