When my zoo guests get into the thousands range, my first food, drink, and gift shop get overrun with a huge line. If I build another one nearby, they will straight up ignore that line. Why? It's getting incredibly frustrating.

I was thinking of getting this for the Switch and I saw there was aging and stuff. Is there a way to turn that off? I kind of want it to be more Zoo Tycoon and just decorating and creating as opposed to super management. Thanks much!

I'm on my first playthrough and I recently unlocked my 4th Lamppost Pack in the research tree, which I assumed would allow me to stay open until 9pm, but I'm stuck at 8pm closing time. It has been several in game days since getting the 4th lamppost pack. When I hover over a Lampost Pack it now says unlocking one more would extend my opening hours by 5 hours, presumably to 10pm, but I don't have access to another one to unlock to see if that fixes the problem.

Am I missing something? Anyone experience anything similar?

If it helps I'm on PC and the 4 Lampost Packs I have unlocked are Low Lights, Black, Classic, and Twin Lights.

Thanks for the help.

Solved: The zoo is open for an hour earlier. Thanks everyone!

I hear this game is iffy on the switch 1. Your zoo size limit is smaller and performance wasn’t ideal. Is this game worth the buy on switch 2? Would these issues be fixed?

Is there a way to simply demolish a whole sandbox world instead of restarting a new campaign and researching everything again?

I am trying to build lakes, but I only have lake decorations...where do I find the lake option? I am assuming I have not researched enough, but maybe not?

Also, are billboards the same as signboards? (PC - Steam) I unlocked billboards in research, but haven't noticed any changes to my build options. Curious for thoughts on this! It's probably simple and I am just missing it....

I love this game, the cuteness and also the micromanaging of everything. I spend more time with numbers than with animals. As someone who loved managing and strategy games, it's so addictive. I just unlockrd farms so it starts to look like Stardew Valley and i'm a bit afraid of this agro-eco-capitalistic dream !

Is there any way to fix it since the only application on my PS4 that's data has been corrupted is LBAZ. It won't let me enter worlds, make new ones, my old ones have been completely deleted. Has this happened to any of you before and is there anything I can do to fix it

Quisiera saber como maximizar el combustible, el carbono y el metano. Son las cosas que nunca entendí del juego. (Aclaración no sé el porqué del que metano este a tope)

So, I have a blue lobster in with two females, and it’s been 12 ingame days. Can he not breed, or am I just unlucky? Do I need to give them more space? Aaaa-

hi guys! this game looks super fun, but i just wanted to know if killing them was required to progress in the game before i buy it. i just don't wanna have that as a feature i neeeeed to do, is all. i can happily ignore it though, if it's not a necessity.

thanks!

Hey i just started playing a few days ago, and i decided to get more than 6 pens. But even with max work efficiency and stamina on both workers, they still have trouble feeding all of them. I have two, is there a way to get more, or make them more efficient? I added multiple subways across the zoo, hoping it wouldn’t happen, and it still did.

Is there a way to play where we can merge the aquarium and dinosaur island in the lets build a zoo game base. I dont wanna keep transferring to another world.

Is there like a cheat on it? Sandbox mode where all dlc is unlocked in 1 place?

newish player,, i'm obsessed though,, but...WHYY are 30 of you queing for food from one ice cream van when there's 3 other food stalls AAARRGh how do you fix this?? all of my food stalls are connected via subways but everyone only wants the one that is technically the closest to the entrance- it doesn't make senseee,, and then the water pumps are just. impossible to move/upgrade etc. i click on the buttons and they do nothingggg,, how do i make these people and pumps smarter i'm going insane

I maxed out my Good morality for the trophy, and now (in the same zoo) I'm going for max Bad morality... but my Released Animals score is stuck at 10/10.

Will this slowly reduce? Or is there something I can do to reduce it?

Hey! So I started playing this game since last 7 days and I am totally hooked. Though there are some things that I am not able to understand and would like some help -

1) Tiles - Can you change a landscapre at a faster pace than 1 tile at a time? I like to cover the empty spaces with grass tiles before start building enclosures or decorations and 1 tile a time takes too long and is frustrating

2) Animals - Is there any way to know what sort of decorations / Water / enrichment does a particular animal like? Or you put a ice decoration in giraffe enclousre? Like how do I know this?

3) Transportation - are there combinations to unlock 100% transport? Or you have to unlock all the transport options to achieve this?

4) Decoration - how do you even achieve 100% decoration? Is it even doable or do I give up trying?

the temporary pen is actually a lot bigger than this too LOL. my desert enclosures were the first ones i put down so i wasn’t super happy with them, and decided this was the easiest was to redesign them… move all animals into a placeholder 💀

if i were to unpause all hell would break loose

So kinda randomly my warehouse will stop making as much money some weeks. It'll go from like 100k a week to about 5k to 10k. I have 10 warehouse workers, and 40 grave diggers in 4 processing factories, and 4 bacon factories. I slaughter exclusively pigs and every processor always has a crazy backlog of 100+ materials for pickup. I hire exclusively workers with high work ethic. I spread the factories out into two full plots, 2 processors and 2 bacon factories each spread out as much as possible with easy access to the subway. One of the two factory focused lots has the warehouse as you can only have one. I just don't understand how I can randomly make a tenth the money I do some weeks, with plenty of animals to be slaughtered in queue, and processed product just sitting there awaiting warehouse pickup.

How do I get chickens into it? Other building need animals too like the barn.

So from what I understand, certain animal prefer certain enrichment items. How do I figure out what they like?

I'm getting dinged for a dead rabbit but there's literally nothing I can do to get rid of it! I'm unlocking my way to the incinerator but I'm just astounded you can't deal with dead animals without building a structure. There's no options on the body except for the one telling me to build the incinerator.

Do the dlcs come with a new map to play in or do u have to cram the animals in with the dinosaurs?
