4m is good to keep things from jumping out. Then use the upwards pointing arrow to raise its height. Click and drag it around the fence to select all of it, While in barrier editing mode, you can select the sidways pointing arrow. This allows you to adjust the barrier, and swap out one fence type for another. You select the fence and choose ‘ Edit Barrier’. To raise a fence, you can play the first campaign, but I will also tell you here too. Larger animals like Elephants will need thicker brick, and along with animals that can jump, will need a greater fence height than default. Tortoises, Gharials, Peafowl and other such smaller creatures that cannot jump can be housed in a wood log fence You will want to choose a material suited for the animal you are housing. You can also sort by animals by clicking the Animal banner and checking the boxes of the animals you are interested in.įences are important, for they keep your animal in and allow guests to look inside. They’re good to get if you want another exhibit to bring in more guests, but they are not good for making money by selling / releasing. Peafowl are cheap, but they also do not sell for much and you get absolutely nothing for releasing them into the wild. Good animals to start with, in my experience, are Tortoises, Ostriches, Nile Monitors, and Warthogs. I tend to try and buy my first animals with cash and save my Conservation Credits Conservation Credits are harder to get than cash, even though you start with low money in the beginning. You can also click on it to sort lowest to highest, or vice versa. If you click on the cash banner, you can sort by just money or just Conservation Credits. To start buying animals, you want to open the Animal Market. Your Conservation Credits and money will add up. They usually have high enrichment / social requirements that you may not have yet. The first thing that needs to be said is: Do not rush into buying the big animals. Keep an eye on babies as they grow up and be ready to remove them. Mechanic Research unlocks new buildings, facilities, fence types, and more.Also unlocks better food and enrichment items. Veterinarian Research increases education level of the signs you post for that species, and increases breeding rates / successes.This will allow a perfectly square / rectangle path (See Paths section for more details) You can build a square / rectangle habitat by first placing a road using the ‘Align to Grid’ option, and then building the fence within the marked out area.You can delete water by right clicking while on the Water Tool (See Terrain section for more details).Mechanics are also very important, and if you build too much without hiring more, things will begin breaking because they cannot get to it all (See Managing Employees section for more details).Keepers are very important and you will want to make sure you have enough for all your habitats (See Managing Employees section).Tortoises and ostriches have worked well for me to start off with Only need basic Staff Facilities like Quarantine, Staff Center, Trade Center, Keeper Hut I expect this proces to be viable in Planet Zoo although it might be expanded due to the many new features.Don’t want all the full details? then this spot is for you! Quick and easy tips This usually involves placing down foliage, fountains, benches etc.Īfter these steps my zoo will be finished and I'll walk around it using the visitor mode. When all core objects have been placed and tweaked I start placing down detail items to fill up the empty spaces, giving the park a lively feel. Usually this involves tweaking the design a bit because of the path limitations in Zoo Tycoon 2 but I foresee this won't be an issue in Planet Zoo. When I'm happy with the layout of the map I start implementing the design into the game creating the proper biomes, filling the habitats with desired animals and placing the buildings. With this map I decide how to connect each area with paths, where and how many habitats I want and which buildings go where. Next I take a piece of paper and draw the heightmap onto it. This proces continues untill I find the layout visually pleasing. I use this to divide the park into predetermined sections i.e. I had a few steps to do so.įirst of all I would use the landscaping tool to created elevated / lowered areas. Back during Zoo Tycoon 2 when I went for a themed park I used to plan it out a lot.
