It was a wonderful suggestion!! Thank you!

Yes!! Love it, thank you!

Yes that's cute names.

Thank you Edward! And yes love that, I'd definitely dine there 😄

Thanks Bree! And yes move went well and all settled and homey now, thank you :)

Ahh thank you! And yes move went smooth and I'm glad to be back!

@@fewcandy Good to have you back!!!

Entirely agree on the talent comment. I have had the same problem with these creative escape artists. sometimes it's having enrichment items close to the barriers or walls. They seem to be able to follow them through. Another way they get out is if you use climbable items as wall decorations. the little buggers can apparently squeeze through the smallest crack then.

Yes my lemurs are escaping through solid walls too!! I've had that issue before and as DK says its usually due to the fact climbable items are too close to the walls. I will be doing some adjusting on a future episode to mention it!

Yes love the name suggestions!! Thank you! And yes it is magic how they fill up the feeders lol! This path was more intended for future purposes for the caretakers and mechanics to get around through a secret back path! Glad you are enjoying the series!

Yes all went smoothly and good to be back! Thanks Jude!

😂 Please accept my apologies!!

Thank you Alicen! 😊

Ahh thank you! So nice to hear it’s useful even for those who’ve been playing for a while!

Ahh sorry to hear that Craig, but glad a bit of zoo building could lift your spirits! Hope your days brighten up from here on out!

Ahh thats great to hear! ♥

Aww thank you Jack! ♥

There was quite a lot of death this episode! 😂😬😭

Honestly I'm usually so concerned with my piece count that I've never just dove into detailing, so it's been fun to take a step back to see what I can put together.

Thank you Liscosity! Glad you enjoyed it, and absolutely great tip with the mossy rocks, completely slipped my mind when building this but would add a really nice layer to the underwater area for sure!

Ooo yes!! Definitely a Happy Feet in there :)

Thanks Heather! And absolutely got to get a Pingu in there!! Childhood favourite TV show for me :)

@@fewcandy Same! Loved Pingu. Other names - Pinga after pingu's sister and Penguina just cos lol

Thank you! It took me 100s of hours to get to grips with this game so do not fear! If you get to ep 14 (the live stream) at the end I toured my first zoo... it's awful!! Have faith, take it slow and your creativity will come!

Ooo i didn;t know that!! Good to know the reference, and glad you're having a crack at it! It's great fun once you get the hang!

Ahh thank you for the comment, glad you found it useful! 😄

😆❤

Absolutely can! Will try and make sure to do that from now on!

Ahh wow thank you! I'm so glad you are finding them useful! I do cover some elements quite quick so if you ever have any questions do ask in comments, I do my best to answer as many as possible! My patreon is: www.patreon.com/fewcandy Any tiny support is immensely appreciated! ❤ Thank you!

@fewcandy I went into your patreon account to join, and I will. But most of it is City Skylines. I do have that game but I'm still learning 'build' games and liked the idea of building an animal kingdom... Thanks again for your great teaching and your commentary is quite engaging too. Nice to listen to! By the way, FewCandy, I've named my zoo after you. It's your design so I must give credit where it is due.😀

@@laurahughes6138 Ahhh that's so sweet! Thank you!! And yes you are right, patreon has been geared towards Cities content as that was the game I started with originally. Would love to hear what you might suggest as patreon perks for planet zoo fans though, I really struggle knowing what are things people would like to receive and so hard to know if people don't ask for it! I was contemplating planet zoo habitat blueprints for patreons, as an example? (This is not to encourage you to sign up btw, I'd just be really grateful of the feedback to know how to improve things and you are the first zoo watcher who has expressed an interest in it!)

Haha! yes sorry I wrote that with a free pen and my mouse in paint so it's very difficult to read! 😅 We likely will divert from this original plan a little as time goes on so every chance we can add other animals and very happy to take requests! ☺

@@fewcandy it’s a nicely planned zoo though, you’ve done really well. And it’s nice to see someone explain how things are done and which settings to select for what you are trying to do rather than watch “enclosure ideas” and they just do it without explaining so thank you for that! I would love to see some Maned Wolves in there, we have some at the zoo near me and I’ve only ever seen them once as the keeper went in with a bucket of dead rats to feed them, it was amazing to watch them catch the rats mid air. I have some in-game and I’m not sure if it’s just my game or if they are buggy in general (they’ve been in two different enclosures as I redid the layout and both had the issue present). I keep checking them and they are always stood very close to each other sort of going in small circles hungry or thirsty despite having food and the piped water bowl. The only way I can fix it is to box one of them and instantly the other runs off for food or water and when I unbox the boxed one it does the same thing. Mine have 2 pups at the moment and sometimes all 4 are stuck in the same area so I have to box one repeatedly. But generally I enjoy any canid. African Wild Dogs were my starter animals and I felt genuine sadness when my alpha female died 🙈 I didn’t even have her for 24 real life hours before she died. I don’t know if you know this but when making the memorial, if you click the drop down menu where it says “memorial screen” or whatever it is if you click one of the other two options it does have the name of the deceased animal on. I don’t know why the screen version doesn’t.

@@HeCantSeeWithoutHisGlasses didn’t know that on the memorial screens, thank you, will try that out! And I’m not sure about the maned wolves bug, it’s not one I’ve heard of unfortunately and I don’t think I’ve actually ever placed them so we can definitely find a home for them in this zoo!

Yes! Love that, thank you for the suggestion!

Found the solution, forgot to mechanic research the new dlc's. My bad.

Yes! If you click on the body of water you get an options menu in the top right, you can choose the transparency from there!

I have uploaded the lemur house habitat, but not any others. I will look at doing more if there is demand for it, was there a specific habitat you were after? Here's the lemur house! steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2920410250

I'm still going through the series lol but I was wondering if you would consider the Concession/food&drink building?

@@cloudifrieze830 Done! steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3098082407

I don't believe you can release them to the wild when they are Elders no, so best to get it in when they are still adults!

I see on your video that you make a lot of money without a lot of animal 😅 i feel helpless

Oh yes they definitely bring in most of the income for me! Have you moved your donation boxes around to different locations to see if that works? Guests won't donate to boxes which are too far away from animal viewing points, so you want to make sure they are positioned right where they stop to look at the animals, on or immediately next to the path. I'm trying to think if there is a setting which you can disable donations... but I don't think there is from memory. Hoping the location may be the issue from what you describe, otherwise I am at a loss! Hope you find a fix!

@@fewcandy i have check and yes they are right in front where visitors stop. I have check option just in case but yes their in no "undo donation" 😅 i am lost i don't know what to do 🤣

@@Melaniepipoule67 oh no! I just did a look googling and apparently if you have the 'guests stay longer' option in sandbox selected then they don't donate.. I'm not sure how true that is but do you have that option selected?

@@fewcandy hoooo that is possible ! I will check when i get back home (there is this option and also "unlimited money" for visitors) so maybe that's why ! Thanks for your help ! (Maybe it was a bug in the game because in the same time my staff wasn't able to reach the staff room.. but the buildings where connected with the right path. It was strange)
