Hello Zookeepers!
Thank you for all the reports and feedback you have shared during the Beta. We have a new update for you today that we hope will improve your Beta experience further.
Notes
- A number of enrichment items are locked in the Beta, and will therefore always show as locked in the research UI!
- If Zookeepers are tired and they can't go to a Staff Centre to rest, then they won't perform their tasks (including inspecting and feeding).
Fixes
- Further improvements to Zookeeper feeding behaviour;
- Mitigation against an issue causing finances to suddenly drop by large amounts - if you still see this issue, please raise it on the issue tracker and submit your save game;
- Vets and Mechanics will now remain assigned to research when they go to perform another job or go to the staff centre. Once done they will return to performing research where they left off;
- Further balancing to breeding;
- Improvements to Zookeeper cleaning behaviour and cleanliness ratings;
- Entrance prices are now saved correctly;
- Fixed an issue where guests were walking on staff paths;
- Fixed an issue whereby path and terrain UI will not open if you have opened them twice in a row beforehand;
- Fixed an issue when autocompleting transport rides;
- Fixed an issue where deceased animals become stuck in the Vet's surgery;
- Fixed an issue leading to marketing campaigns not being able to be cancelled;
- Various crash fixes.
Please be sure to keep sharing your feedback, it's been hugely helpful for our teams as we aim to keep improving your experience with the Planet Zoo Beta!
