    Awesome use of the timbers for the viewing platform. It's such a beautiful area.
    It's not hard to imagine the Zoo hosting an after hours fundraising gala.
    Part of this event includes access to this viewing area that is filled with elegant tables and chairs and a makeshift catering serving area. The event guests enjoy their cocktails and the views as they empty out their wallets to support the conservation efforts of the Zoo.

    Another fantastic episode! I’m really enjoying your voiceover while the time lapse is running too. I’ve started watching quite a few other planet zoo builders and honestly this is the best underwater habitat I’ve seen by far! I like how you use the terrain to set out the area first, rather than just relying on rocks - it looks so much better that way ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I can’t wait for the next episode ❤ Also, I hope your house move went well!

    Well, I just can't say this enough ... you are SO FREAKIN' TALENTED!! If you saw on the Discord screenshot, I had started an underwater habitat but just got so frustrated with it, mainly because I didn't know what I was doing, until now lol This is truly an amazing build. BTW, I don't know if you've had any issues with the Lemurs escaping through solid walls or not. If not I guess that means I just have some very talented and stubborn Lemurs lol

    • @DK-zk9lq
      @DK-zk9lq Год назад

      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.

    • @fewcandy
      @fewcandy  Год назад

      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!

    Thank you for another great episode. So glad to see it pop up this morning. You helped immensely with the ramp explanation. I never could get it to work right. Love this habitat and can't wait to see how you integrate it with other water habitats. BTW, I've found that you don't have to have a keeper path to the underwater area. They fill the feeders from the land area above. Don't ask me how they are able to do that but they do. I think they just dump the fish in the water or something.
    So name suggestions again, You must have a Larry the Prairie to mate with Mary. And Penny the penguin, has a nice ring.

    • @fewcandy
      @fewcandy  Год назад

    I'm finally able to watch a zoo video on release day! And what kismet, since I'm diving in to build an otter habitat in my sandbox zoo! I tend to overcomplicate making the underwater viewing areas, so thanks for showing me a much simpler method, it looks way easier to build than what I've been doing, with essentially the same effect. Also, I agree that adding the additional color to the stone really made everything come together. I tend to also mix in some of the mossy and dynamic moss rocks with heavy water habitats to mimic moss and algae, especially if I'm not in temperate and can't use the moss plants. It can help in habitats (like the sea lions) that don't like a lot of plants that leave you with a super brown space. Anyway, fantastic build as always! I'm so happy this series manifested after I asked if you played, because I really enjoy watching you put these together. 💜

    I’ve only had the game several days and my skills are crap at the moment, my enclosures are tightly packed rectangles with no rocks or plants so I’m watching videos to get more skilled as it’s just not set up well as some parts of the 8m paths get so congested the staff can’t get through easily. But when you showed your zoo plan drawing I had a look to see if you had any canids (my favourite animals in real life and I have a “Canidae Conservation” zoo in-game and to keep it interesting there will be a few other species).
    But I can’t tell you how long I was sat here thinking “what is a Sam Erica Dome?” 🙈 eventually it clicked

      @@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.

      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.
